Yuvraj Singh's tweet after Abhishek Sharma's century goes viral
Abhishek Sharma played a breathtaking knock, scoring 141 runs off 55 balls, including a century in just 40 balls. His aggressive batting was on full display, but what stood out was his maturity. After reaching 98, he took a single, and then again, after reaching 99, completed his century with another single, showing a well-calculated approach amid his fiery innings.
His mentor, former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh, took to Twitter to highlight this moment of maturity, but in his own hilarious way. He tweeted, "Wah Sharma ji ke bete! 98 pe single, phir 99 pe single! Itni maturity hazam nahi ho rahi! Great knock!"
Yuvi also praised Travis Head, who played a brilliant knock of 66 runs, forming a 171-run partnership with Sharma for the first wicket. Yuvi wrote, "These openers are a treat to watch." Further, he lauded Punjab Kings' captain Shreyas Iyer, who scored a quick-fire 82 runs off just 32 balls, adding, "Great to watch as well."

Abhishek Sharma has often credited Yuvraj Singh for his success
Yuvraj Singh has been a mentor and guiding force for Abhishek Sharma, offering valuable support and encouragement that has shaped his career. Both hailing from Punjab, their bond reflects mutual respect, with Abhishek often crediting Yuvraj for his growth.
After hitting his maiden T20I century against England earlier this year, the 24-year-old thanked Singh. "The focus was very much clear (during practice). Yuvi Paaji put all these things in my mind three or four years back," Abhishek told the media after his 54-ball 135.
"Yuvi paaji was the one to believe in me, and when someone like Yuvraj Singh is telling you that you are going to play for the country and you are going to win the games, obviously you try to think that 'okay I will play for India and I will do my best'," he added.
