Milk: Former pacer S Sreesanth congratulated Indian player Sanju Samson who scored a match-winning century in the third ODI against South Africa. Sreesanth said that Sanju Samson scored a well-deserved century for Team India in South Africa. Sreesanth wished Sanju to score more centuries. S Sreesanth is one of the most important players in the career of Sanju Samson, including his arrival in the IPL. Both have played together for the Kerala cricket team.
Sanju Samson scored his maiden international century in the third ODI against South Africa. With this, Sanju became the first Kerala player to complete a century in international cricket. Sanju single-handedly led Team India to a top score from the crease, scoring 108 runs from 114 balls at a strike rate of 94.74, including six fours and three sixes. Team India won the match by 78 runs on the strength of Sanju and won the ODI series 2-1. Score: India- 296/8 (50), South Africa- 218 (45.5). Pacer Arshdeep Singh also shone in the Indian line with four wickets giving away only 30 runs in nine overs.
S Sreesanth recently suggested that it would be appropriate to change the captaincy of Rajasthan Royals from Sanju Samson to focus more on batting. Sreesanth’s suggestion was to make Jos Buttler the captain instead of Sanju. Sreesanth’s position is that teams need a consistent captain in a big tournament like IPL. Sanju Samson, who became the captain of Rajasthan Royals in 2021, led the team in 45 matches and the result was 22 wins and 23 losses. Under Sanju’s captaincy, Royals played the final in 2022 but lost the title to Gujarat Titans.
