Sunil Gavaskar Predicts Sanju Samson’s Role in Upcoming Asia Cup
Former Indian cricket captain Sunil Gavaskar believes Sanju Samson’s position in the Indian T20 team is secure despite potential changes in the batting order following the Twenty20 world Cup. While Samson recently opened in several matches alongside Abhishek Sharma, Gavaskar suggests this arrangement could be altered, potentially shifting Samson down the order.
The possibility of another player opening-specifically referencing a “gil”-could impact Samson’s role. Gavaskar anticipates the team management may also experiment with Tilak Varma, potentially leading to further adjustments in the batting lineup.This comes as India prepares for the Asia Cup, where team composition and player roles will be crucial for success.
Samson’s recent form as an opening batter has been positive, partnering effectively with Abhishek Sharma. However, the team’s strategy may evolve, requiring Samson to adapt to a different position. The Asia Cup will serve as a key platform for players to demonstrate their versatility and solidify their places in the squad.
