Sanju Samson’s incredible performance in the third T20I against Bangladesh was more than just a match-winning century – it was a fulfillment of his mentor’s request to hit five consecutive sixes in an over! Samson revealed that he had been working towards this goal for the past year, and it finally came to fruition when he smashed five sixes off Rishad Hossain’s over ¹ ².
This feat was part of his stunning 111-run knock, which included nine fours and eight sixes, and helped India post a record total of 297/6 ¹. Samson’s partnership with Suryakumar Yadav, who scored 75 off 35 balls, was instrumental in India’s 133-run victory and 3-0 series sweep ¹.
It’s amazing to see how Samson’s dedication to his mentor’s challenge paid off, and we can’t wait to see what’s next for this talented wicketkeeper-batter!
