India vs Sri Lanka: Sanju Samson - a talent that hasn't been able to take his place in the Indian team regularly despite being consistent in his performances in the domestic. And now, when he finally got a chance to prove his batting skills and take his team to victory, Sri Lankan pacer Binura Fernando 'single-handedly' spoilt Sanju's aims.
In the ongoing 2nd T20I match between India and Sri Lanka, the hosts were in a spot of bother after losing both inf-form openers inside the first six overs. Sanju Samson came onto bat at #4 as he was getting some game time while he's still in the squad due to key players being rested or injured. Samson started slow and cautiously, scoring 17 runs in 19 balls.
However, the 27-year old targeted Lahiru Kumara in the 13th over where he smacked the first delivery for a four, followed it up with 2 consecutive sixes on the next two balls and smashed another six on the 5th delivery.
