SA vs IND: Fans brutally troll Abhishek Sharma for his flop show with the bat in the 2nd T20I

In the second T20I between South Africa and India at St George’s Park in Gqeberha, India’s batting struggles continued as the top order faltered early. Amid a shaky start, Abhishek Sharma‘s brief stay at the crease only added to the pressure on the team, as he was dismissed for just 4 runs. This disappointing performance left fans frustrated, leading to a flood of reactions on social media calling out his form and questioning his place in the squad.

India’s top order stumbles as Sanju Samson departs early

After South Africa won the toss and elected to bowl, India found themselves on the back foot from the outset. Star batter and centurion from the previous match, Sanju Samson, was dismissed for a duck within the opening over. Attempting to clear the infield with a big shot off Marco Jansen, Samson was clean bowled, leaving the team in trouble.

Abhishek Sharma’s poor form continues

With Samson gone, expectations mounted on Abhishek to provide some stability. However, he could not deliver, scoring only 4 runs before falling prey to Gerald Coetzee’s bowling in the second over. Coetzee targeted Abhishek with a short ball on the off side, which the batter tried to pull, only to top-edge it to Jansen at short fine leg. This early loss deepened India’s woes, sparking a wave of disappointment among fans who had hoped for a stronger response from the left-handed batter.

On X (formerly known as Twitter), fans shared brutal memes and criticism, with some suggesting that his poor form warranted a reshuffle in the batting lineup.
