Abhishek’s 30-ball century leaves Afghanistan 127 short
The India opener hit 108 off 34 balls as India completed a 3–0 T20I sweep in Delhi. The larger sixes claim can wait for its spreadsheet.
India completed a 127-run win after Abhishek Sharma made 108 off 34 balls.
Abhishek Sharma needed 30 balls for his century. Afghanistan needed 14.1 overs to be dismissed for 94.
The India opener smashed 108 off 34 balls, including nine fours and 11 sixes, in the third T20I at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium on September 17. India made 221/7 and won by 127 runs, completing a 3–0 series sweep. Afghanistan’s bowlers were not invited to the highlight package.
The ICC records Abhishek’s century as India’s fastest in T20Is and the third-fastest overall. His innings ended at 108, caught by Rahmanullah Gurbaz off Rashid Khan just before the halfway mark of India’s innings. The scorecard records the same figures.
A report has also claimed that Abhishek moved to 96 sixes in all T20 cricket this calendar year, 10 ahead of Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. That comparison is not independently established in the available primary material. The official IPL website records Sooryavanshi hitting 72 sixes in IPL 2026; the other 14 have not been itemised. The confirmed record, for now, is 108 off 34 and a 127-run win.
