Fans on Twitter reacted after India National Cricket Team batter Sanju Samson failed to get going in the ongoing T20I against England National Cricket Team. The fourth game of the five-match T20I series between the teams is taking place at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune.

In what was another poor outing with the bat in the series, India National Cricket Team opener Sanju Samson was back in the hut yet again in the powerplay. The keeper-batter, who was under massive pressure, yet again succumbed to pressure and got out early.

Sanju Samson was removed by Saqib Mahmood in the second over as the pacer was dismissed in the same manner for four innings in a row. The pacer bowled a short and angled into the body and the batter had no room to get a free swing of his hands.

Sanju Samson went through with the pull and mistimed it to deep square leg, where Brydon Carse took a simple catch. The India National Cricket Team batter managed just 1 run off 3 balls and was the first wicket to fall in the game.

Sanju Samson has been having a horrible time in the ongoing T20I series against the England National Cricket Team. The keeper-batter has been targeted by the opposition with the short ball and he has struggled to play the ball.

Sanju Samson hasn't looked comfortable against the pace of Jofra Archer, Mark Wood and Saqib Mahmood in the ongoing series. He scored 26 runs in the first game and then followed it up with a score of 5 in the second innings. In the third match, he slammed 3 runs off 6 balls.

The keeper-batter will now have just one game to prove his worth. If he fails to score runs in that game as well, then questions surely will be raised about him, especially with a lot of youngsters on the bench as well.
