Sanju and Abhishek have performed very poorly so far: Former player gave a big statement before the third T20 against Bangladesh

According to Aakash Chopra, till now both the opening batsmen have not batted well in this T20 series. Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma (Pic Source-X) The third and final T20 match between Team India and Bangladesh is to be played today i.e. on 12th October at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. However, before this match, former player Aakash Chopra has given a big statement regarding Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma. According to Aakash Chopra, till now both the opening batsmen have not batted well in this T20 series. According to him, both the players have got the start but they have not been able to convert it into big scores. So far, two T20 matches have been played between these two teams. Team India has won both these matches. In the first T20 played in Gwalior, Team India defeated Bangladesh by 7 wickets while the hosts won the second match by 86 runs. Now the host would definitely like to register a win in the third T20 to be held in Hyderabad. However, before this match, Aakash Chopra has shared a video on his official YouTube channel in which he has presented his side regarding Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson. Aakash Chopra said, ‘What about the two opening batsmen? This is a very big question. This is a three match series. At this time you are seeing Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson as openers but both of them have not made big scores yet. Sanju Samson looked in very good form in the first match. Not only this, Abhishek had made a very good start in both the matches. Although he was run out in the first T20, he played very poor shots in the second. Sanju was also out early in both the innings. He had scored 29 runs in one innings but could not make a big score in the second. This is very important. Many people are included in the list of openers: Aakash Chopra The former player further said, ‘This is very important because the opening batsmen have to score runs quickly in T20 and they also have a lot of time. That is why Abhishek and Sanju will have to score runs because Rituraj, Shubman and Yashasvi Jaiswal will also come from behind. There is a lot of space for openers in Team India. You will also get to play four matches against South Africa but the situation there will be quite different and your opponents will also be quite competitive. That is why this match is very important for both the Islamic batsmen. If both the openers fail in the third T20 against Bangladesh, then questions will definitely be raised on their place.
