Well, it is fair to say that this has been a Sanju Samson masterclass in Hyderabad against a struggling and stuttering Bangladesh team. In the first two T20I matches, Samson couldn't deliver as per the expectations, but he finally arrived in style and silenced his critics with a 22-ball fifty on Saturday evening.

This was Samson at his brilliant best as the Kerala batter looked intimidating and took the opportunity with both the hands as he smacked the Tigers to all around the park and took India to a dominating position.

India had a horrendous start as they lost Abhishek Sharma cheaply. Bangladesh saw an opening, but the window was shut quickly as both Samson and skipper Suryakumar Yadav played mind-boggling shots and took Bangladesh to the cleaners.

Etching closer to his fifty, Samson showed the selflessness and smacked 4, 4, and a gigantic 6 to bring up his magnificent 22-ball fifty. The emotions could be seen in Samson's eyes as he looked visibly emotional after reaching the landmark.

Surya show on the other end

Suryakumar Yadav, the India T20I skipper went toe-to-toe with his partner, Samson and took the attack to the cleaners, right from the word go. He brought out his favourite Supla shots, as the Tigers looked clueless.

The Mumbai batter brought his 360 degree version to tear apart the opposition attack. At the time of writing this piece, Surya is batting at 47, and is striking at 235, as he aims to cross the 50-run mark. His innings, so far, has been laced with 6 fours and 3 sixes.
