Ishan Kishan Takes a Dig at Abhishek Sharma After His Explosive 113-Run Knock

Abhishek Sharma's explosive 113 off 38 balls powered India to a six-wicket win over New Zealand, but Ishan Kishan's cheeky remark after the century has caught attention. Here's what he said about Abhishek's meditation celebration.

India defeated New Zealand by six wickets in the third T20 International on Tuesday, chasing down a target of 199 runs in just 13.2 overs. The Indian batters delivered a dominant performance, with Abhishek Sharma leading the charge through a blistering 113-run innings off just 38 balls. Following the explosive knock, Ishan Kishan took a playful dig at Abhishek, highlighting how the batter's aggressive approach was affecting others' mental health.

Abhishek completed his century in just 35 balls, making it the second-fastest T20 century by an Indian batter. After reaching the milestone, he celebrated with his trademark meditation pose. Sunrisers Hyderabad shared a video clip on social media in which Ishan Kishan can be seen joking about Abhishek's celebration.

In the video, Kishan remarked that while Abhishek meditates himself, he is busy ruining other people's mental health with his explosive batting.

Ishan Kishan missed the second and third T20 matches against New Zealand due to an injury. Vaibhav Suryavanshi was given an opportunity in the playing XI in both matches in his absence.

Vaibhav and Abhishek combined to produce a spectacular batting display in Wellington. The duo smashed 133 runs together in just seven overs. Vaibhav contributed a blistering 45 off 19 balls, while Abhishek continued his aggressive approach to lead India's successful chase.

India's third consecutive successful run chase against New Zealand in the series also extended its unbeaten lead to 3-0. With the six-wicket victory on Tuesday, India secured an unassailable lead in the five-match T20 series.

The result also continued India's winning streak in T20 series against New Zealand, which has been going on for the past seven years. With three matches still to be played, India have already sealed the series after dominating all three encounters through successful run chases.
