New Delhi: March 2, 2026 (09:16 AM)
Sanju Samson’s unbeaten 97 vs West Indies sealed India’s T20 World Cup Super 8 win, silencing critics. Coach Gautam Gambhir hailed it post-match, recalling NZ struggles where Samson failed to cross 30 in 5 inns (3 single digits), benched early WC favoring Ishan-Ishaan openers.
Gambhir’s Praise
“World-class player; backed him fully—team needed him most, he delivered true potential,” Gambhir said. Noted natural shots sans force; nets showed form despite scores. Hopes new career chapter; Rinku swap right call with SKY.
India eyes semis vs England; Gambhir stresses team efforts like Dube’s cameos vital.
