Sanju Samson scored 13 runs off one ball while opening for Kochi Blue Tigers in the Kerala Cricket League on 26 Aug 2025. He hit two sixes on a no-ball and the free hit in the fifth over against Thrissur Titans. Samson made 89 runs from 46 balls with nine sixes and four boundaries. This powerful innings sends a strong message ahead of the Asia Cup, where his place in the Indian team is uncertain. Earlier, he scored 121 runs on 24 Aug 2025. The selectors had said Samson played earlier due to other players' absence. His recent form shows he can be a key player for India. (Updated 26 Aug 2025, 18:39 IST; source: link)
