Gautam Gambhir messes up Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s confidence as youngster fails, Sanju Samson also flops

India's tactical shift in the second T20I against New Zealand proved costly as Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, moved from his usual opening spot to number three, managed only four runs before being caught by Daryl Mitchell off Nathan Smith. The batting struggles continued for the visitors when Sanju Samson, attempting to stabilize the chase of 181, fell for 14 runs after a slower ball from Jacob Duffy was caught by Glenn Phillips.

With five wickets already down and a significant run requirement remaining, the team management faces heavy criticism for these experimental batting changes during the series.
