News India Live, Digital Desk: Sanju Samson’s game has always been attractive, but now there has been a strategic change in his way of playing. They are no longer batting just to score runs, but to completely change the tempo of the game. According to the News18 report, this ‘new version’ of Sanju completely meets the demands of modern T20.
3 main pillars of Sanju Samson’s success (Key Takeaways)
Single-Mindedness: Sanju has now abandoned the old thinking of “saving wickets”. He adopts an aggressive approach from the very first ball. He believes that scoring 40 runs in 20 balls in T20 is more valuable than scoring 50 runs in 40 balls.
Maximum Use of Powerplay: Sanju’s strike rate has increased significantly during the powerplay. They take advantage of fielding restrictions and give such a start to the team which reduces the pressure on the incoming batsmen.
Mastery against spin: Sanju Samson is currently one of India’s most lethal batsmen against spin bowlers. Using the crease and hitting long sixes against the spinners has become his strength, which maintains Team India’s run rate in the middle overs.
Sanju vs other contenders: What’s the difference?
Now “selflessness” is visible in Sanju’s batting. While many players slow down as they approach their half-century or century, Sanju does not hesitate to play a big shot even when the score is 49 or 99. This is the ‘single-minded’ approach that captain Suryakumar Yadav and coach Gautam Gambhir want to see in Team India.
Upcoming T20 World Cup and Sanju’s future
Consecutive T20 International centuries and consistency in the IPL have made Sanju Samson a permanent member of the team’s playing eleven. Now he is not just seen as a ‘backup’ player, but as a ‘match winner’ who can destroy any bowling attack.
