India vs England, 5th T20I: The 5th and last match of the T20 series between India and England is in Southampton. Team India has already lost the series. In such a situation, she will try her best to win the last match. In that effort of the Indian team, a big change can also be seen in the playing eleven of Southampton. It should not be a surprise if we see Sanju Samson returning to the playing eleven again. Now the big question is, whose place will Sanju Samson take in the team? Vaibhav Suryavanshi, for whom he was ousted. Or will one of Ishan Kishan and Tilak Verma be out?
Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s game in IND vs ENG T20 series
15 years old Vaibhav Suryavanshi Got a chance to make his international debut against England. But after the first 3 innings, no big innings were seen from his bat. On top of that, the way his IPL teammate bowler Joffra Archer has exposed his weakness in the last two matches is also not hidden from anyone. Vaibhav Suryavanshi has scored only 42 runs in the first 3 innings at a modest average of 14 and strike rate of 168.
Ishan-Tilak’s game in IND vs ENG T20 series
Ishan Kishan’s bat is also quiet in England. He has scored only 66 runs in 4 innings of the T20 series at an average of 16.50 and strike rate of 115.78. The condition of India’s T20 captain Tilak Verma is as bad as Ishaan and Vaibhav, who has scored only 51 runs in the first 4 matches of the series.
Sanju Samson can play 5th T20I
In the last T20 against England, both the credibility of Team India and its dominance in T20 is at stake. In such a situation, the Indian team management may be seen taking tough decisions. If this happens, then it seems certain that Sanju Samson will be included in the playing eleven of the 5th T20. It will be interesting to see whether Samson fits into his old place by replacing Vaibhav Suryavanshi in the team’s batting order. Or he comes in place of one of Ishan Kishan and Tilak Verma. If Samson comes into the playing eleven of the 5th T20, then this will also see the entry of a right-handed batsman in the top order.
Apart from Samson, this player may also get a chance
Apart from Samson, all-rounder Suryansh Shedge can also be seen getting a place in the playing eleven of the 5th T20. He can be seen replacing Shivam Dubey in the Southampton T20. The reason behind this could be that Suryansh Shedge is a right-handed batsman.
