Suryakumar Yadav advises Abhishek Sharma to be 'himself' after opener admits to being 'hurt' post Zimbabwe tour

Abhishek Sharma scored just 11 runs in three T20Is during India's 3-0 series win in Zimbabwe.

Abhishek admitted on Instagram that he was 'hurt' by his performances and promised to return stronger.

Suryakumar Yadav advised Abhishek to be 'himself' and reminded him of the smiles he brought to fans over two years.

Abhishek was dismissed cheaply in similar fashion, trying to force pace against Zimbabwe pacer Blessing Muzarabani.

His opening partner Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, aged 15, scored 151 runs and won Player of the Series, putting pressure on Abhishek.
