Sanju Samson made the most of his time at the crease as captain Suryakumar Yadav gave all the players a chance to bat, helping India reach a solid total of 188 for 8 against Oman in their last league match of the Asia Cup on Friday.

How did Sanju Samson bat?

After vice-captain Shubman Gill got out for a low score, a right-hander was needed at number three, and Sanju Samson (56 from 45 balls) got the opportunity. Although the pitch was a bit slow and his innings wasn’t completely fluent, hitting three fours and three sixes will surely boost his confidence before the crucial matches ahead.
