Sunrisers Hyderabad’s South African import Aiden Markram believes Abhishek Sharma’s destructive IPL form would fetch him an India cap in the not so distant future.
Sharma, who is striking at over 200 in the ongoing edition, has 401 runs in 12 matches. He and Australian Travis Head make for an explosive opening pair and most recently chased down over 160 runs in a less 10 overs against Lucknow Super Giants.
“Abhi (Abhishek) has made massive strides this season. He was showing some really positive signs in the previous seasons and what he’s achieved so far this season puts him in good stead for hopefully representing India one day,” Markram said of the 23-year-old left-hander. “He’s got a very calm and level head on his shoulders and he’ll take everything in his stride ,” he added.
Markram said that the addition of an extra batter in the line-up has allowed teams to adopt a more aggressive approach.
