‘He Goes Too Deep In The Crease’: Gavaskar Flags Samson’s Flaw Ahead Of India-Pakistan Clash

By IANS News February 13, 2026 • 14:06 PM View: 266

T20 World Cup: Former Indian captain Sunil Gavaskar pointed out technical flaws in Sanju Samson’s approach after the wicket-keeper batter threw his wicket on 22 runs against Namibia, in India's second match of the T20 World Cup 2026, played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Thursday.

Gavaskar said Samson’s tendency to go too deep inside the crease while attempting the flick shot is causing problems at the top of the order.
