Abhishek has passed the baton of zeroes to Ishan: Abhishek Nayar

Ex-India assistant coach Abhishek Nayar said it'd be a "very uncomfortable discussion" between Ishan Kishan and Abhishek Sharma over who'll take the strike after India's T20 World Cup 2026 Super Eight loss to South Africa. "Abhishek has passed the baton of zeroes to Ishan, someone who was in prime form," he added. Abhishek has registered three ducks in the tournament.
