Abhishek Sharma talked to his mentor Yuvraj Singh through a video-call after scoring a sizzling hundred against Zimbabwe at the Harare Sports Club on Sunday.

Abhishek's family was elated as they celebrated his century and congratulated him from the phone screen. The 23-year-old talked to his mentor and former India player Yuvraj Singh through the video-call. Yuvraj hailed Abhishek for his record-shattering performance as the batter notched up a 47-ball hundred in his 2nd T-20I match for India. 

"Well done, very proud. You deserved it. Many more to come, this is just the start," Yuvraj said on the video call with Abhishek Sharma.

Abhishek revealed, “I had called Yuvi Paji after the first match and I don't know why, but he was very happy, he was like that's a good start. I think he must be proud today as well, just like my family." 

he continued, "So I am really happy, and it is all because of him as well, the hard work that he has put on me. For the last couple of years, he has been working hard on me, not only with just cricket, but even off the field as well. So, it is a big moment.”
