Former India player turned veteran commentator Aakash Chopra has applauded Abhishek Sharma for continuing his sublime form in the Asia Cup 2025 as well. Abhishek scored 61 runs off 31 balls as India posted 202/5 against Sri Lanka in the final Super Four Game of the Asia Cup 2025 as well. The Indian team eventually won the match in a Super Over as well.

In a video shared on his YouTube channel, ‘Aakash Chopra,’ he said, “Abhishek Sharma, what a rocket, what a guy. The words to praise him have finished. Absolutely outstanding batting. The special thing I felt about Abhishek is that his head is extremely stable. He moves around but keeps his head still. The bowlers are scared of him now. His reputation comes before him, that a dangerous batter is coming. Generally, you say he won’t be consistent, as he plays such high-risk cricket, but what consistency, man.”

However, Aakash Chopra also stated that Abhishek Sharma shared his special skills by playing shots all around the park.

“He hit a six over fine leg off a short ball. When the bowler followed him, he moved to the leg side and hit a six almost to the right of mid-off. These are extremely special skills. If you go slightly away from him, he hits a four or a six with a cut. I am just keeping my fingers crossed with both hands that the law of averages shouldn’t come in between, or else he will keep hitting like this until he plays. He is that superstar. He had three 30-plus scores, and after that, he has three 50-plus scores now,” Aakash Chopra concluded.
