He went all-out from the start, and opened his account with a whopping-high six. His 47 ball century included 7 Fours and 8 Sixes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking to social media, former Indian all-rounder and mentor of Abhishek Singh, Yuvraj Singh, hailed the youngster but also urged him to not get over confident after his big knock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Rome wasn&#8217;t built in a day!
