Sanju Samson Shatters Rohit Sharma's All-Time T20I Record With Hyderabad Heroics

Wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson entered his name in the history books after he brutally thrashed Bangladesh in the 3rd T20I of the three-match series. Playing in Hyderabad on Saturday, Samson unleashed his fury on Bangladesh bowlers and hammered 111 runs off just 47 balls. India posted a whopping total of 297/6 in 20 overs.

Sanju Samson made the world stand up and take notice as he registered the second fastest T20I ton for an Indian, in the third and final match of the series against Bangladesh on Saturday. Samson, who is yet to be considered a regular in the Indian team, produced mind-boggling hitting at Hyderabad's Uppal stadium, scoring 47-ball 111 while opening the innings. However, opening in T20Is isn't a role Samson has been playing recently. But, a message from the leadership group helped him prepare for this challenge efficiently.

India's Predicted XI vs Bangladesh 2nd T20I: India streamrolled Bangladesh in the series-opener, chasing 128 in just 11.5 overs in Gwalior. Express pacer Mayank Yadav and all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy made their India debuts at the Shrimant Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Stadium. While Mayank got a wicket on his debut, Reddy was a bit expensive with the ball, while also struggling to replicate his IPL exploits with the bat. However, both could be rested for Wednesday's clash in Delhi. Suryakumar's side has already taken a 1-0 lead in the series after clinching a seven-wicket victory over Bangladesh in the first T20I match in Gwalior.

An India so dominant that Bangladesh is admittedly clueless about how to match the "skills and mentality" of Suryakumar Yadav's men. The script is not expected to deviate much when the two sides clash in the second T20 International on Wednesday with the home team's young mavericks proving more than a handful for the full-strength visitors. Bangladesh have hardly looked like the plucky opponents that they are hyped to be but India have looked every bit the marauding force that loves to intimidate on home turf.
