Sanzhou Samson: Team India’s next mission is now about to begin. The four-match T20 series between India and South Africa will begin on November 8. In this series, the reins of the Indian team will once again be in the hands of Suryakumar Yadav. At the same time, young and new players will get a chance to perform better and cement their place in the Indian team. But the task won’t be that easy because the South African team is also very strong. In this series, all eyes will be on Sanju Samson, who can also be seen making his start in the Indian innings in this series.
Sanju Samman scores his first T20 international hundred against Bangladesh
Sanju Samson has played 33 T20 internationals for India so far. But even so, his place in the Indian team cannot be said to be certain. Now there are teams going there to play a series against Australia, so Chow has taken on the responsibility of starting, otherwise there’s no telling if he would have been in the team. If we talk about openings, then in 33 T20 matches for India, he has opened 8 times for India. Before scoring in the last T20 against Bangladesh, his numbers in the opening half were not very good. But his talent was evident when he scored a stunning 111 runs off 47 balls against Bangladesh.
Sanju will join Abhishek Sharma against South Africa
Apart from Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson is the only batsman who can open the innings now in the squad selected for the South Africa series. In this case, it should be assumed that he will start all 4 games of the series. This will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Sanzhou Samson, and he must seize it at all costs. He will have to hit a century in at least one of the four games. Only in this way will they appear in everyone’s sight. If we talk about Sanju Samson in this year’s IPL, he scored 531 runs in a total of 16 games during his tenure as captain of Rajasthan Royals. Although he averaged over 48, apart from this century for India, the rest of the numbers were not very good.
Sanju Samson can fill Rohit Sharma’s void
Sanju Samson has played a total of 9 T20 internationals for India this year. In eight innings of batting, Sanju Samson didn’t even open his account thrice. He has scored one and a half centuries. But Sanju is yet to perform at the level required to join the Indian team permanently. The peculiarity is that after Rohit Sharma retires from T20 international cricket, it is still uncertain who will be the permanent opener for India in this format. Many players are contenders for this. Apart from Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Abhishek Sharma, there is also the name of Sanju Samson. Now there is a better opportunity in three weeks, and he will definitely seize it.
