Ipl 2023: Hopefully Innings Against Rajasthan Could Be The Turning Point In Samad's Career, Says Tom Moody
Former Sunrisers Hyderabad head coach Tom Moody believes all-rounder Abdul Samad hitting a last-ball six to seal a dramatic four-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals in Sunday’s IPL 2023 cliffhanger could become the turning point in the youngster’s career.
Samad had been unable to take Hyderabad over the line in final over chases against Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders earlier in the season. But on Sunday, a stroke of luck through a no-ball propelled him to smash a six on the free-hit against Sandeep Sharma to lead Hyderabad in chasing down 215, ending unbeaten on 17 off just 7 balls.
"What Abdul Samad has got as a young, emerging player is a rare ability to hit the ball out of the ground. He reminds me of a young Yusuf Pathan. He's got that strength, power, and it's a very hard role to play."
