Sanju can perform well in all positions from 3 to 6, said Wasim Jaffer.
Former Indian player Wasim Jaffer has come out criticizing the Indian team selection for overseas tours. Wasim Jaffer points out that there are very few opportunities for young players to prove themselves in the team.
Wasim Jaffer says that it is natural for players to feel extra pressure if they are given few opportunities to perform well. The player said that the team management should have more confidence in the players if they want to play well. Wasim Jaffer told Cricinfo that the failures of players like Deepak Hooda could be due to less opportunities.
Players are given a long rope and they feel like they only have 1 or 2 chances. On the other hand there are others who are waiting for opportunities. Sanju Samson averages 66 after just 10 innings in ODI cricket. Earlier this year, the batsman proved to be a versatile batsman who shone as a finisher in ODI series against West Indies, Zimbabwe and South Africa.
The player got only one match on the tour of New Zealand, scoring 36 runs in one match and was dismissed in the next match. Sanju Samson is in great form, be it in T20s or ODIs. Sanju can perform well in all positions from 3 to 6. The star can also protect wickets. Wasim Jaffer said. Deepak Hooda and Sanju Samson have not made it to the ODI squad against Bangladesh. The player said that the exclusion of both of them raises doubts about their presence in the ODI World Cup to be held in India next year.
