India Weigh Samson-Sooryavanshi Options Ahead of 2nd T20I vs West Indies
Ahead of the second T20I against the West Indies, India's team management is considering changes due to Sanju Samson's recent low scores, potentially pairing Vaibhav Sooryavanshi with opener Abhishek Sharma. While Samson's recent innings have been underwhelming, the middle order led by captain Shreyas Iyer has performed strongly, including Iyer's maiden T20I century. Sooryavanshi has shown promise in limited opportunities, but the established opening pair remains favored as India aims for a 2-0 series lead.
