Karachi: Former Pakistan captain Salman Butt criticizes Sanju Samson’s performance after the India-Sri Lanka T20I series against Sri Lanka. Salman Butt said that despite getting a good start against Sri Lanka, Sanju could not turn it into a big score. Butt said on his YouTube channel that if he wants to get a chance again in the star-studded Indian line-up, he needs to turn good starts into big innings.
Sanju has talent. Sanju should try to light it up and score maximum runs. When it comes to international cricket, Sanju fails to deliver consistent performances. In the last T20I against Sri Lanka, Sanju managed to score 18 runs despite playing some beautiful shots. This game is not enough. Sanju is a talented player but the best scores do not come from him.
Sanju should try to establish himself in the team by consistently performing well. There are a lot of players in the Indian team. If you want to be different from all of them, you have to put out an extraordinary performance, ”Butt said.

Only one Shreyas is enough to beat Sri Lanka
Butt said only one Shreyas Iyer was enough to beat Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka did not have the strength to put up a good performance against India. Therefore, only Shreyas Iyer was enough to beat Sri Lanka. They could never get him out. Butt said Iyer batted with confidence and control.
Sanju, who played in all three T20s against Sri Lanka, did not get a chance to bat in the first match. Sanju has scored just 57 runs in the last two matches in which he has been given the opportunity to bat. In the second match, Sanju scored his highest score of 39 in an Indian shirt, but in the third match, Sanju came back with just 18 runs as the opener.
