IRE vs IND: Hardik Pandya reveals, Sanju Samson is playing crowd. watch

Hardik Pandya revealed that the Kerala cricketer has been included in the playing XI for the second T20I against Ireland. Earlier on Sundays, he used to spend his day on the bench as Deepak Hooda was preferred over him. However, once it became clear that he would play, the whole Malahide was showing how badly they wanted it.
Even Hardik Pandya was shocked and smiled at the crowd’s reaction: “A lot of people are liking it, I guess.”

In the second T20 match being played in Dublin, India won the toss and decided to bat first against Ireland. Hardik Pandya reveals that he has made three changes in the team. One of them garnered applause from the crowd as he confirmed that Sanju Samson is in the playing XI. He also said that Harshal Patel has returned in the playing XI in place of Avesh Khan. Also, Ravi Bishnoi made way for Yuzvendra Chahal. Meanwhile, Ireland played the same team.

“We want to bat first. The wicket is looking fine and the weather is looking amazing and sunny too. When we bowled first, we expected the wicket to do more than that. But the boys are credited with keeping them in that total by realizing which ball to bowl. We have three changes: Ruturaj misses out on a swallow, Sanju comes in. Harshal comes in place of Avesh and Bishnoi comes for Chahal,” Pandya said.

Earlier Sanju Samson was seen taking selfies with fans as he left for practice ahead of the second T20 International. Some of his pictures have gone viral on social media. At the time of writing this report, he is already close to fifty.
