T20 WC: 'He Told Me To Be Ready Before Zimbabwe Game…' Samson Reveals Gambhir’s Words That Ignited His Comeback
T20 World Cup: India wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson said his comeback midway through the victorious 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup was sparked by words from head coach Gautam Gambhir, who told him to be ready for playing the Super Eights clash against Zimbabwe.
Samson didn’t get to play a game in the 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup win, and featured in the league stage clash against Namibia in New Delhi, as Abhishek Sharma was recovering from stomach infection. He got redrafted into the playing eleven from the Super Eights clash against Zimbabwe.
But it was from the must-win clash against the West Indies, where he hit an unforgettable 97 not out, that Samson lit up the World Cup with knocks of 89 in the semi-final against England and then in the final against New Zealand. Overall, Samson amassed 321 runs at an average of 80.25 and strike-rate of 199.37 and was adjudged Player of the Tournament, as India won their third title.
