Sitanshu Kotak Clear Message: Team India recently performed brilliantly in the first T20 match played against New Zealand and won by 4 wickets. Recently, India’s batting coach Sitanshu Kotak praised opening batsmen Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma.

According to Kotak, the discussion going on about Vaibhav has neither helped him nor the other players.
Playing 11 is not selected from social media-Kotak
Before the second T20 match between India and New Zealand, Team India’s batting coach Sitanshu Kotak said that there is a lot of speculation on social media about the three opening batsmen. In such a situation, social media users should also understand that the decisions of the team management are for the benefit of the team only. People want to see the playing 11 of their choice, but this does not happen. Playing 11 cannot be selected from social media.
Praise for Sanju Samson
Taking his point further, Indian batting coach Sitanshu Kotak praised Sanju Samson. Kotak said that Sanju is a brilliant and powerful batsman. The way he batted while chasing a big target in the first T20 match was undoubtedly commendable. According to Kotak, if a batsman makes up his mind to hit 3-4 sixes in the first two overs, then he may also have the fear of getting out. After proving to be a flop in two-three matches or getting out early, the player starts fearing being out of the team. Despite such pressure, the way Sanju and Abhishek are showing their intentions is really encouraging.
