IND vs SA 2nd T20: The second match of the five-match T20 series between India vs South Africa will be played tomorrow on 11 November in New Chandigarh, Punjab. India registered a spectacular victory in the first T20 match. Although, the Indian team faltered a bit in the beginning of the innings, but Hardik took control of the team. In the first T20 match, India defeated South Africa by 101 runs. Now India is leading 1-0 in the series. After the first T20 win, there is little possibility of any change in the team, but questions are being raised on many forums about Shubman Gill, who is in poor T20 form. In such a situation, can Sanju Samson return to the team as an opening act?
Shubman Gill running in bad T20 firm
At present, Shubman Gill is the vice-captain of the T20 team and he plays as an opening batsman. Gill is also the captain of the ODI and Test teams, but the last few T20 matches have not gone well for him. In the last 13 T20 innings, Gill has scored only 263 runs. South Africa were out after scoring just 4 runs in the first match of T20.
Will Sanju Samson be included in the team?
Due to continuous flop of Shubman Gill, there are reports in many places as to why Sanju Samson is being made the scapegoat in his place. When Sanju Samson is present as the opening batsman, then why is Gill being included in the team. Let us tell you that Sanju has scored three T20 centuries in the last one year. Apart from three centuries, Sanju has also scored three half-centuries. Meanwhile, Sanju’s average has also been better.
Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson/Shubhman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Verma, Sanju Samson, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, Varun Chakraborty can join the team.
