St George’s Park: Team India’s Malayali player Sanju Samson has again disappointed in ODI cricket. In the second ODI of the South Africa tour, Sanju was able to score only 12 runs in 23 balls despite the prospect of staying at the crease for a long time. Sanju’s return was bowled by Bruce Hendricks. Although he was in the team in the first match, Sanju did not get a chance to bat. A section of cricket fans are attacking Sanju now that he is unable to take advantage of the opportunity.
Fans point out that Sanju Samson’s problem is that he cannot shine in the opportunities he gets. Fans made it clear through social media that what they expect from Sanju is not such a bad performance. In the 2nd ODI against South Africa, after Sanju was stumped on the inside edge with 12 runs from 23 balls, the fans have come out against Sanju with such criticisms. Sanju has no choice but to shine in the third and final ODI of the series to make his place in the team. Let’s see the responses criticizing Sanju Samson.

Biggest achievement of Sanju Samson will be getting compared to Rishabh Pant.
One guy is away from cricket for an year now, and see where he is standing, 1st captain to raise paddles in IPL auctions.
Whereas, the other guy ? well, what can we say..?

Congratulations SA on a great win. Well deserved. Players like Sanju Samson who are only overhyped needs to be kept outside the team for ever, after this series. He never made use of the 13 opportunities he got so far.
