Not an hour or a minute, even a second is very heavy. Every moment is important in cricket because the situation can change. Can decide the course of the match. You can do things that you might not even be thinking about. Now take only those two cricketers whom we are going to talk about. The Ramkahani of these two that was seen within 48 hours was no less than a surprising incident. Of the two cricketers we are mentioning here, one is Phil Salt of England and the other is Sanju Samson of Team India.

Phil Salt is playing cricket in West Indies. While Sanju Samson is playing with the Indian team in South Africa. But, despite playing miles away from each other, a similar incident happened to them. That too within just 48 hours. What happened to these two cricketers, let us now know about it.

What happened to Samson?

First of all let's talk about Sanju Samson. In the first match of the T20 series against South Africa, Sanju Samson scored a century while opening the match. But, after 48 hours, when the second match took place against the same team, Samson could not even open his account. After playing only 3 balls, the hero of the first match was out in the second match and returned to the dugout.

The same thing happened to Salt that Samson suffered.

Now let's talk about Phil Salt, he also scored a century in the first match of the ongoing T20 series against West Indies. Played an unbeaten inning of 103 runs. Like Samson, he became the hero of the first match for his team. But what about after that? Just 24 hours later, when the second T20 was played, the hero of the first match was out on the very first ball. He couldn't even open an account.

What was different in the story of Samson and Salt was that their team lost in the second T20 after Samson was out on zero. Despite Salt being out on zero, England managed to defeat West Indies in the second match.
