Abhishek Sharma has entered an unwanted record in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup after being dismissed for a duck in each of his first two matches in the tournament.
With his latest dismissal against Pakistan in Group A, Abhishek became only the third player from a Full Member nation to be dismissed for zero in his first two T20 World Cup appearances.
The list now includes:
- Ashish Nehra
- Imrul Kayes
- Abhishek Sharma
Ashish Nehra and Imrul Kayes were both dismissed for ducks in their opening two T20 World Cup matches and did not score a run in their respective T20 World Cup careers.
Abhishek’s dismissal against Pakistan, where he fell for 0 off 4 balls, places him alongside Nehra and Kayes in this statistical category.
The left-hander’s early exit also marked his second consecutive duck in the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 campaign.
