Samson delivered crucial performances towards the business end of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, smashing explosive half-centuries in the semifinal and final to help India clinch a record third title.
Alongside Abhishek Sharma , Samson took the game away from New Zealand in the final by amassing 92 runs in the powerplay.
“We know what Sanju can do, there was never any doubt about his talent and explosiveness. If he gets going, he can win you the game in the first six overs,” Gambhir said on Jio Star.
