Days after scoring a record-breaking century, India opener Abhishek Sharma endured a nightmare outing against Japan in the one-off T20I on Tuesday in Sano. Abhishek, who scored a 30-ball century against Afghanistan in the third T20I last week, was dismissed for a golden duck by Japan all-rounder Charlie Hara-Hinze. The southpaw thus scripted the unwanted record of being dismissed for a duck the most times in a calendar year. He also became the first player to be dismissed for a duck 10 times in a single calendar year. Players With Most T20 Ducks In A Calendar Year Abhishek Sharma: 10 ducks (2026)* Rashid Khan: 9 ducks (2019) Shadab Khan: 9 ducks (2024) Abhishek produced a record-breaking century against Afghanistan in the third T20I at Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium. The left-hander smashed 108 off just 34 balls, reaching his century in 30 deliveries, as India posted 221/7 after being asked to bat first. Overall, it was the third-fastest T20 hundred and the fastest by an Indian batter. Rohit Sharma held the previous record, scoring a century off 35 balls against Sri Lanka in 2017.
