I want to make the most of my current form
Sanju Samson was also given the title of Player of the Match for playing an excellent century in the first T20 match against South Africa, after which he said about his innings that whatever time I spent on the field, I tried to enjoy it completely. Tried to. You can say that I want to take full advantage of my current form at this time. While batting, our thinking was to be aggressive and keep the team ahead. Once you play 2 to 4 balls, you keep looking for the boundary. I don’t think too much because sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. I am glad to get this work done today. It is not easy to beat South Africa at home but I am happy that we have started this series very well and with a win.
Sanju became the third player and the first Indian player to do so.
Sanju Samson hit a total of 10 sixes in his innings of 107 runs against South Africa, after which he became the third player and the first Indian to hit 10 or more sixes in an innings of T20 International in Africa. Before Sanju, in the year 2007, Chris Gayle of West Indies had achieved this feat on the ground of Johannesburg, while in the year 2023, Johnson Charles of West Indies had managed to achieve this feat on the ground of Centurion.
