Still Samson got out cheaply

Samson made a great start to his innings but he could not convert it into a big score. Despite a fast start, Sanju Samson returned to the pavilion early. Sanju scored 26 runs in 20 balls with the help of four fours and one six. Joffra Archer got him caught by Atkinson on his own ball.

Atkinson has taken a hat-trick in test

Gus Atkinson is playing only his fourth T20 International match. He still lacks experience in this format. But he has proved himself in Test cricket. He has also taken a hat-trick in this biggest format of cricket. This fast bowler of England has achieved this feat only in the end of 2024. The second match of the three-match series against England and New Zealand was played in Wellington. In this, he created history by taking a hat-trick by dismissing three New Zealand batsmen Nathan Smith, Matt Henry and Tim Southee one after the other.
