[Saba Sports News] Sanju Samson, renowned for his exceptional stroke play and clean hitting, enjoys a substantial fan following. Recently, a video of him smashing a massive six became popular on social media, shared by his Indian Premier League (IPL) team, the Rajasthan Royals. In the clip, Samson, an Indian cricketer, is seen hitting a huge six straight over the bowler. The ball impressively landed on the roof and bounced back onto the field, delighting fans with the sound it made off the bat. This display of skill by the Rajasthan Royals captain, particularly his striking six, garnered much praise online.
Samson’s recent performances include a remarkable century against South Africa in a series-deciding match at Boland Park, Paarl. His efforts played a key role in India’s win and securing the series, earning him the Player of the Match award.
Looking ahead to 2024, Samson has ambitious goals, including making a significant impact in the IPL and the T20 World Cup. He is set to participate in the T20I series against Afghanistan and the Ranji Trophy for Kerala. Returning to IPL in March, he aims to lead the Rajasthan team, hoping to replicate their inaugural success under Shane Warne’s leadership.
A strong domestic season could also pave the way for his inclusion in India’s squad for the T20 World Cup, making 2024 a year full of potential for the 29-year-old cricketer.
