Abhishek Sharma T20I Ranking Update: The 2026 T20 World Cup proved to be a poor one for Indian batsman Abhishek Sharma. In the first four matches, Abhishek scored just 15 runs. He scored all of these runs in the fourth match, as he was dismissed without scoring in the first three matches. Now let's explore the changes in Abhishek's T20I rankings after being dismissed for zero three times.

So let us tell you that despite three consecutive ducks in the T20 World Cup, Abhishek's T20 rankings haven't changed. He was number one before the T20 World Cup and remains at the top even after his poor form. Abhishek's rating is 877. 

Ishan Kishan came in the top-5 

Meanwhile, Ishan Kishan, who has been in excellent form in the T20 tournament, has made a significant gain in the rankings. He has moved up three places to enter the top 5. Previously, Ishan was ranked 8th, but now he has reached 5th. Ishan's rating is 742. 

Who are in the top 5?

Following Abhishek in the top five is England's Phil Salt, who has a rating of 815. Pakistan's Sahibzada Farhan is third, with a rating of 810. Sri Lanka's Pathum Nissanka is fourth with a rating of 789, and Ishan Kishan is fifth. 

Ishan Kishan's amazing performance in the T20 World Cup 

It's worth noting that Ishan Kishan has scored 176 runs in five innings across five matches so far, at an average of 35.20 and a strike rate of 193.41. He has scored two half-centuries during this period, with a high score of 77. This came against Pakistan. However, it's worth noting that Ishan returned to the pavilion without scoring in the first Super 8 match against South Africa. Team India now faces Zimbabwe in their next match, where all eyes will be on Ishan.
