Sanju Samson has been dropped from the playing eleven for the second of the five-match T20I series against England. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, 15, is named in the team as the replacement for Samson.
Ahead of the match, when the team line-ups were disclosed, Sanju Samson was spotted in an animated chat with the head coach, Gautam Gambhir. Near the boundary ropes of the Old Trafford cricket ground in Manchester, Gambhir was saying something to the experienced opener.
Sanju Samson dropped; Vaibhav Sooryavanshi made his Team India debut
Samson, hands on his waist and head down, ardently listening to Gautam Gambhir. It is unclear what the head coach said to the dropped opener, but it could be to support the batter who just lost his place to an emerging 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi.
The change is understandable. Sanju Samson was the first-choice opener for India, but he failed to deliver in three consecutive matches; two against Ireland and one against England. As a result, he has been dropped from the playing combination in Manchester tonight.
