Former Pakistan opener on Samson’s impactful knock vs West Indies

3 min readUpdated: Mar 2, 2026 05:23 PM IST With his 50-ball knock of 97 runs against West Indies in India’s five-wicket win in their final Super 8 match at Eden Gardens in Kolkata, Indian batter Sanju Samson not only scored the highest score by any Indian batter in a run-chase in a T20 World Cup match but also showcased his ability to dominate bowlers with ease. While Samson hit two hundreds in the T20I series against South Africa in 2024, the 31-year-old had a mediocre series against New Zealand at home, amassing only 46 runs in five matches. The Kerala batter also did not start in the playing XI for India in the opening match against the USA before he featured against Namibia due to Abhishek Sharma being unwell.

Why lack of impactful runs will make Suryakumar Yadav a liability during the T20 World Cup

Why lack of impactful runs will make Suryakumar Yadav a liability during the T20 World Cup

As India kicked off their preparations for the T20 World Cup with an impressive 48-run victory against New Zealand in the first T20I here on Wednesday, their captain Suryakumar Yadav quietly surpassed a significant landmark. He received his 100th cap for his country in the shortest format. For context, that is two more than MS Dhoni. He is only the third Indian to feature in 100 or more T20Is, after Hardik Pandya, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. But unlike these superstars that have preceded him, Surya is not quite a white-ball great. His ODI record is middling at best: 37 matches without a single century. He is, by those marks, India’s first T20 specialist, captaining the team in an era in which the shortest format has outrightly taken over the public’s consciousness. His one-track mind and specific skills were the reasons why he was entrusted to lead India going into a high-profile title defence after they phased out the stars of the previous generation from the 2024 triumph. He has done a fairly good job …
