Sher-e-Punjab T20: Leading Amritsar Soormas a Special Task for Abhishek Sharma

Abhishek Sharma feels honored to lead his hometown team in the Sher-e-Punjab T20 League. For him, it’s more than just a game—it’s an emotional responsibility. Born and raised in Amritsar, representing the city means a lot to him.

Sharma wants his team to play aggressively and fearlessly. He believes that every player should take risks and not worry about failing. This approach, he hopes, will make them strong as a unit.

The league also offers a big chance for young cricketers from Punjab. Many talented players don’t get much attention in national tournaments, but this league gives them exposure through TV and professional environments. Sharma sees it as a way to help the next generation of players grow.

He is excited to share his experiences with younger teammates, teaching them about believing in themselves and making quick decisions during matches. While winning the title would be great, he feels the real success would be seeing his young team members get selected for IPL teams or state sides.

The tournament starts on August 30 and ends on September 13. Some of India’s top players, like Shubman Gill and Arshdeep Singh, will also play in the league. For Sharma, this is a chance to give back to his home state while trying to win as captain.
