Overview

• Fresh first-person accounts follow his Asia Cup 2025 surge, where he topped the charts with 314 runs in seven innings and was named Player of the Tournament.
• Sharma says Yuvraj Singh predicted he would win games for India within two to three years and backed it with deep video analysis, notes and before–after comparisons from camp work.
• He describes SunRisers Hyderabad’s message under Pat Cummins and Daniel Vettori as unapologetically attacking, quoting Cummins’ line that 100 all out is acceptable but “safe” 160–170 totals are not, with bowlers asked simply to concede fewer than the batters score.
• Sharma recounts a pep talk from T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav who told him he would keep his place even after multiple ducks, which he says freed him to play with conviction.
• He credits Shikhar Dhawan for introducing visualization and journaling, linking it to his IPL 2025 century celebration when he produced a prewritten note reading, “This one’s for the Orange Army.”
