In India’s recent match against the West Indies, effectively a virtual quarter-final, Abhishek showed brief promise with a few sharp boundaries but failed to convert his start and again left cheaply. Despite his poor performance, India have secured a place in the semi-finals where they will face England at the Wankhede Stadium on March 5. As defending champions, India will aim to secure a place in the final scheduled for March 8 at the Narendra Modi Stadium where they will face South Africa or New Zealand.

Interestingly, Abhishek has an impressive record against the England cricket team in T20Is. In five innings, he has amassed 279 runs at a remarkable average of 55.80, including a century and a half-century. His performances against England suggest he could play a decisive role in the high-stakes semi-final.
In his first T20I against England, the visitors posted a modest total of 132, helped by a three-wicket haul from Varun Chakravarthy. During the chase, Abhishek fired 79 off just 34 balls, smashing five fours and eight sixes to send India home comfortably.
Although he endured three quiet performances after that, he made a stunning statement in the fifth match of the series. India piled up 247/9, powered by Abhishek’s sensational 135 off 54 deliveries, including seven fours and 13 sixes at an astonishing strike rate of 250. His innings came against a formidable England attack featuring Mark Wood, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Jamie Overton and Brydon Carse.
