Abhishek Sharma played for Punjab in the Ranji Trophy 2023-24

Abhishek Sharma was part of the Punjab squad in the ongoing Ranji Trophy 2023-24 season, where his team got eliminated in the group stage itself. The all-rounder played four matches, scoring 199 runs at a sub-par average of 28.42. He also picked up three wickets with his left-arm spin.

After Punjab failed to qualify for the quarterfinals, Abhishek would have planned to start his preparations for the upcoming IPL 2024 season, with the SunRisers Hyderabad having retained him. However, the youngster will have to cooperate with the police now.

IPL 2024 will reportedly start on March 22. SRH have failed to perform well in the last three seasons. The Orange Army, who have signed some big names like Pat Cummins, Travis Head, and Wanindu Hasaranga at the auction, will aim to win their second championship this year.
