Delhi: Star wicketkeeper and opener Sanju Samson became the first Indian batsman to score two consecutive T20 International centuries, but he has now made an unwanted record in his name. In the second T20 match against South Africa, the Indian team lost the toss and came to bat first. Team India had a very bad start at St. George’s Park and the hero of the last match, Sanju Samson, returned to the pavilion without opening his account.
