Since January 2024, Samson had scored 487 runs from 18 T20I matches as a opener, an average of three centuries and 170 strike rates of 32.46, became one of India’s most vigilant top-order players. Nevertheless, like a proven finisher with a crowded squad Jitesh Sharma And Rinku SinghIndia opted for a strategic reshuffle, allowing Samson to adapt.
While supporters feared that Samson’s demotion could threaten their location, coaches Gautam Gambhir And captain Suryakumar Yadav Emphasized his faith in his all-round batting acumen, giving him a constant middle-order role. However, the form has proved to be elusive: Samson managed a measured half century UAE At number 3, but the high-day Pakistan stumbled in the encounter, scored just 13 runs in 17 delivery. The latest Bangladesh Tie saw another reshuffle- Samson, listed at number 8, was not found to bat, because India was brutally for the victory of Abhishek’s explosives 75 and 41 runs behind strong bowling.

They trust me with a new role and I want to contribute in any way“Samson reflected after the match.
