Sanju Samson's Shot Selection Sometimes Lets Him Down: Sunil Gavaskar

By IANS News January 04, 2023 • 12:15 PM View: 836

Legendary India batter Sunil Gavaskar expressed his disappointment over Sanju Samson's shot selection during the T20I series opener against Sri Lanka at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

During the first T20I on Tuesday, Samson received a lifeline on the third ball of the seventh over as the fielder missed an opportunity to take a catch at deep mid-wicket. But on the fifth ball of the over, Samson went for a huge across-the-line hoick and the leading edge was caught by short third man off Dhananjaya de Silva for just five runs.
