India won the first ODI against Zimbabwe by 10 wickets. KL Rahul is leading the team against Zimbabwe. Many players have returned to the team, whether it is Deepak Chahar or Kuldeep Yadav, or Sanju Samson. KL Rahul has reposed faith in many players as soon as he took over the responsibility. Especially on those players whose performance has always been good but they have got fewer opportunities.

Sanju Samson's open luck under the captaincy of KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma had not expressed confidence

One such player whose fate has opened as soon as KL Rahul becomes the captain is Sanju Samson. The way Sanju Samson has always been ignored. There was little hope that he would also get a chance in the Zimbabwe tour. Under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, Sanju has got negligible opportunities. But in the first ODI, L Rahul has given him a place in the team.

Have played only 4 ODIs for India so far, would like to improve the numbers

Samson has played only 4 ODIs for India so far in which he has scored 118 runs including a half-century. Sanju Samson would like to take advantage of this opportunity given to him.

Also, he would like to improve his stats. However, Sanju Samson could not get a chance to bat in the first ODI against Zimbabwe on the previous day. Team India defeated Zimbabwe without losing any wicket.

Sanju Samson's figures have been like this year

This year Sanju Samson has scored 169 runs in 5 T20I innings at an average of over 44. He has scored 72 runs in 3 ODI innings which includes one half-century.
