Sanju Samson, who was not India's first choice opener in the T20 World Cup has now smashed three half centuries back to back. Sanju, who was included in India because they wanted right-left combination at top, proved to be game changer for team India.

<nh-chunk-delimit /><p style = "margin-top: 0px;">Sanju Samson became only the third batter in the world to smash 50 in both semi final and final of T20 World Cup. His sublime form also made him the highest run scorer for India in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2026.</p><p><strong>WATCH THE VIDEO</strong></p><p>
