1st T20I: I Knew My Time Would Come, Says Sanju Samson On Tough Phase In Career
New VCA Stadium: Indian wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson has reflected on his international career, missed opportunities, and return to the opening role in a video released by the BCCI on Wednesday. Samson, who was part of India’s squad for the historic T20 World Cup 2024 triumph but did not get an opportunity to play, admitted that the phase was challenging, though he remained thankful for being included in the 15-member squad.
“Talking about the T20 World Cup 2024, I didn’t play a game. Things were up and down, to be very honest, and I was not matching the expectations I had set for myself. But I was grateful that I made it to the fifteen,” Samson said.
Reflecting on the journey so far, the Kerala batter said his career has been marked by unpredictability, especially in the shortest format. “My journey is very special. You never know when you will get the opportunity to play. In this format, ups and downs keep happening,” he said.
