Sanju Samson came out in support of Abhishek

In the semi-final match against England, Abhishek Sharma could score only 9 runs in 7 balls. Sanju Samson, who made a splash in this match, said on the questions being raised on Abhishek’s form, “Abhishek will be successful in playing a big innings in the final. It will be Abhishek’s day in the final and he is fully confident that he will be successful in performing well in Ahmedabad.” Along with this, Sanju Samson also defended Varun Chakraborty. In the semi-final match, he gave away 64 runs while bowling 4 overs and was able to save only one run.

Abhishek Sharma’s poor performance

This T20 World Cup has been very bad for Abhishek Sharma. He has crossed the 50-run mark only once in the 7 matches played so far, and that too against Namibia. Apart from this, he could not even open his account in 3 matches, whereas in the remaining matches he scored only 34 runs. Abhishek is the number 1 batsman in T20 International, so the team expects many times better performance from him. Team India will have high expectations from him in the final match but if his bat does not perform then questions will be raised on his place in the upcoming series.
