IND vs SA: Indian team's wicketkeeper-batsman Sanju Samson has won the hearts of cricket lovers with his recent form. With his excellent batting, he has led Team India to victory on many occasions. Sanju performed brilliantly in the first T20 match against South Africa, due to which everyone acknowledged his batting. Although at the beginning of his career he could not get a stable place in the team, despite excellent performance in IPL, he was not in consistent good form in international cricket. After this, the series against Bangladesh brought a decisive turn in his career. Sanju has further strengthened his image after becoming a part of the Indian team that won the T20 World Cup 2024.

Golden opportunity for Sanju Samson

After playing an innings of 111 runs against Bangladesh, Sanju also scored 107 against South Africa. He became the first Indian to score a century in two consecutive T20 Internationals, which is a big achievement. Now Sanju has a chance to create history in the second T20 match between India and South Africa on November 10. If he scores a century in this match, he will become the first batsman to score a century in three consecutive T20 International matches. No player has done this in the history of T20 cricket till date.

Sanju has more than 7000 runs in T20

Sanju Samson made his T20 International debut for the Indian team in the year 2015. So far, he has scored 701 runs in 34 T20 International matches, which includes two centuries and two half-centuries. His highest score is 111 runs. Apart from this, Sanju has also played 16 ODI matches. Overall, he has 7048 runs in his name in T20 cricket, which reflects his T20 form.

Eyes on series win

By winning the first T20 match, Team India has already taken a 1-0 lead in the series. Now the team will try to win the second match and take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series. Apart from Sanju Samson, players like captain Suryakumar Yadav, Abhishek Sharma, Hardik Pandya, and Rinku Singh will also be desperate to return to good form so that the team can get important runs.

This form of Sanju Samson is very encouraging for Indian cricket and his performance can be decisive for India in the coming matches.
