"Love To Look At Things In Positive Manner": Sanju Samson Ahead Of ICC T20 WC 2024 Opener
Ahead of their opener against Ireland in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, India wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson said that he positively looks at things while reflecting on failures and successes in his career.
Samson, who made his international debut in 2014 in a T20I match, has had ups and downs, having played just 25 T20Is and 16 ODIs for India over the last decade.
His T20 stats have been disappointing as he has scored just 374 runs at an average of 18.70 with one half-century. a strike rate of 133.09 and the best score of 77.
Samson has made his way into the T20 WC squad after a career-best Indian Premier League (IPL) which helped take Rajasthan Royals (RR) to the playoffs. He scored 531 runs at an average of 48.27 and a strike rate of 153.46, with five half-centuries. His best score was 86*.
The Kerala-born cricketer asserted that at the time when a cricketer is young and successful, he tries to skip a few lessons.
"I love to look at things in a more positive manner. If it's a failure or setback, you learn through it. When you are young and successful, you skip a few lessons. I am blessed with my talent, which comes naturally to me as a batter" Samson said in a video posted by BCCI.
The 29-year-old further stated that right from the moment he arrived in the United States, he had taken out all the things regarding Indian Premier which is in his mind.
"Right from the moment I landed here, IPL has been away from my mind. I tell myself that I am somewhere where people dream of going. Then I was like, what else do I need to do? Mentally I did not have to motivate myself. Things happen automatically. When you meet Rohit and Virat, you get inspired and there is no looking back. How can Sanju help India win more games, what it is like to be a WC player for India? I am very grateful for the support wherever I go," the wicketkeeper added.
In the end, Samson said that he loves to change and adapt according to the conditions.
"The biggest lesson as a cricketer and human is that the change is constant. You cannot say that this is the only way to play. I love to change and adapt as per conditions. You can't be the same Sanju Samson," the right-hand batter concluded.
India will start their T20 World Cup campaign on June 5 against Ireland at the newly constructed Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York.
The blockbuster clash between India and Pakistan will take place on June 9. India will later play tournament co-hosts USA (June 12) and Canada (June 15) to wrap up their Group A matches.
In the tournament, India will be aiming to end their ICC trophy drought, having last won the ICC Champions Trophy in 2013. Since then, India has reached the 50-over World Cup final in 2023, semifinal in 2015 and 2019, the title clash of the ICC World Test Championship in 2021 and 2023, T20 WC final in 2014, semifinals in 2016 and 2022 but failed to secure a big ICC trophy.
India squad: Rohit Sharma (C), Hardik Pandya (VC), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (WK), Sanju Samson (WK), Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohd. SirajReserves: Shubman Gill, Rinku Singh, Khaleel Ahmed and Avesh Khan.

As the IPL 2024 season kicks off, the spotlight is on Pat Cummins, the Australian pace sensation who has emerged as the best buy for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). With a stellar track record as a player and a captain, Cummins brings a wealth of experience and leadership to the SRH squad. Under the astute guidance of CEO Kavya Maran, SRH's decision to acquire Cummins is poised to pay rich dividends.
Cummins: A Champion on and off the Field Pat Cummins' journey in cricket has been nothing short of extraordinary. From his early days as a promising young talent to becoming the world's premier fast bowler, Cummins has consistently raised the bar. His leadership qualities were evident when he led Australia to a resounding 4-0 Ashes victory, showcasing his ability to inspire and galvanize his team to success.
Test Championship and World Cup Glory Cummins played a pivotal role in Australia's triumph in the Test Championship in 2023, spearheading the bowling attack with skill and precision. His ability to deliver under pressure and pick crucial wickets at key moments proved instrumental in Australia's success. Furthermore, Cummins' contribution to Australia's World Cup win in 2023 highlighted his all-round prowess and match-winning abilities.
The Best Buy for SRH As SRH gears up for IPL 2024, the addition of Pat Cummins to their squad is a game-changer. His presence not only strengthens their bowling attack but also brings invaluable leadership and experience to the team. Cummins' ability to bowl at pace and extract bounce from any surface makes him a potent weapon in the T20 format.
CEO Kavya Maran's Vision Credit must be given to SRH CEO Kavya Maran for her astute decision to acquire Pat Cummins. Maran's vision and strategic acumen have been instrumental in shaping SRH's squad for IPL 2024. By identifying Cummins as the missing piece in the puzzle, Maran has demonstrated her commitment to building a championship-winning team.
Cummins: The Key to SRH's Success As SRH embarks on their IPL 2024 campaign, all eyes will be on Pat Cummins to lead the charge. His ability to deliver match-winning performances with both bat and ball, coupled with his leadership on and off the field, makes him the linchpin of SRH's title aspirations. With Cummins in their ranks, SRH fans can dare to dream of lifting the IPL trophy once again.

Jos is any day a better T20 batsman than VK. VK has got more records, but the impact Jos has is unparalleled
HAHAHAHAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣
I'm sorry but
HAHAHAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣
I'm curious, what exactly is considered "impact"? How about being the highest run-scorer of 2 T20 World Cups? How about being the player of the tournament in consecutive T20 World Cups? Virat did that. You know what else he did? India played 6 knockout matches between 2014 and 2024. Virat has made a half century or more than that in 5 out of those 6 matches. That's just shy of 400 runs in 6 matches. It makes his average in T20 WC knockout matches over 90. If that's not impactful, I don't know what is.
Is impact related to strike rate? Virat scored 70 off 29 against West Indies, 94 in some 50 odd balls against WI, and his century against Afghanistan came in 52 balls. The first knock has a strike rate of over 200. Virat chased down 48 off the last 3 overs against Pakistan at the MCG in 2022 and 39 off the last 3 overs against Australia at Mohali in 2016. The latter was a virtual quarter final, and Virat's knock guaranteed India's progress to the semi finals.
Is impact related to hitting sixes? Well, for all that Jos is a renowned six-hitter, it was Virat's six against Haris Rauf at the MCG was declared the shot of the century by ICC. An equation that read 28 off 8 became 16 off 6. It was Virat who hit the two sixes that were required to get it down till here.
Virat has time and again won matches out of nowhere for India. The Mohali 82 against Australia, the MCG 82 against Pakistan, the 72 in 2014 SFs vs South Africa, I can go on and on here-- Heck, Virat was most of the, if not the sole reason that India got as far as they did in the 2014, 2016 and 2022 editions of the T20 World Cup. He is a massively impactful player, who delivers whenever needed. Even yesterday's final, take Virat's 76 out of the equation and we had only a 100 on the board to defend. I doubt even Jasprit could have done much with that.
Virat ended his career in T20s as unquestionably the best T20 player of this generation. Nobody comes close to having the kind of impact he does on the game. He carried India in almost every single T20 World Cup he played, and nobody deserved to lift that trophy as much as he did.
I did not intend this as an insult to Jos. He is a great player, one of the very best to have played the game, but he's not better than Virat. Nope, sorry, he isn't. And it isn't limited to Jos either. There isn't any player in the world, not Rohit, not Warner, not Babar, not Maxwell, no nobody in this generation comes close to having the kind of class, poise and impact of Kohli in T20s.
People are allowed differing opinions - sure, the stats say Virat but in terms of coming in when the team needs and changing the game momentum Jos is one of the best at having an impact
Numbers aren’t always everything, I think is the point the original ask was making. And honestly, looking at the tournament that just concluded, VK really only made an impact in the final, whilst Jos was a lynchpin to a lot of England’s batting innings.
Not saying you’re wrong and - as I said - everyone has opinions and it’s great they’re different because it allows us to discuss thing :) But I think the original ask was talking more about match impact than stats. There is a reason he was RR’s impact batsman for the IPL this year.

[ad_1] Jay Shah, the new ICC Chairman (PC: ICC/X) Just as Indian athletes are celebrated for bringing laurels to the country from the field of play, if one takes a look at officials who have done well in 2024, the name of Jay Shah will come on top of the list. This is a year where Shah, son of Union Home Minister Amit Shah, showed that he is young, energetic and still can lead the world of cricket. Shah’s rise to the post of chairman, International Cricket Council (ICC), at 36, has been welcomed by all the major cricket playing nations. The lone exception is Pakistan, where a section took potshots at him needlessly. Indeed, Shah comes as a whiff of fresh air in sports administration, notably cricket. The whole year people in India have got the stick and were tired of reading about various national sports federations being governed poorly. Court cases, infighting, people overstaying their tenure, some sports administrators stunk their places out. This is where Shah has charmed the world with his pleasant manners and endearing smile. When he was chosen as the ICC chairman, it was unanimous. Everyone knows, India is the powerhouse in cricket when it comes to calling the shots in sponsorship deals, advertisement revenue and even TV and digital rights. And each time the IPL has grown bigger and bigger, the BCCI stands behind it strongly. Of course, the IPL has a separate boss but the role of the BCCI top brass cannot be discounted. Even when Shah was the BCCI secretary, he had already made an inroad into cricket administration in Asia. He led the Asian Cricket Council with panache. So, when a replacement had to be found for Greg Barclay, the name of Shah came up unopposed. It speaks volumes for how he has been recognised for the good work done, primarily as the BCCI boss. When the ICC T20 World Cup was hosted by the United States of America and the West Indies this summer, Shah was seen. For the Latest Sports News: Click Here ICC chair Jay Shah with representatives of other Member boards at the ICC headquarters in Dubai on Thursday. Photo: X He won hearts just after the World Cup ended. The first was after skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli said they were saying goodbye to T20 international cricket. Shah he quickly announced both the present and former skipper would be there for the Champions Trophy in 2025. The brouhaha over the Champions Trophy is over. It is as good as a done deal and Pakistan has been forced to accept a hybrid model for the tournament. The details are well known, but Shah slipped into the ICC chair so smoothly, he did not have to make any noise at all. That already defines him as an ICC boss, someone who knows how to get the job done. People will not forget that after the World Cup final, the Men in Blue as well as Indian journalists were stuck in Barbados after Hurricane Beryl had done the damage. Shah flew the team as well as journalists to India in an Air India charter flight. This was after the airport in Barbados was shut down for more than two days. Flights were cancelled and re-bookings were not happening. Shah swung into action as millions were waiting to see the trophy in India. From touchdown in New Delhi on July 4 morning to an audience with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and then being flown out to Mumbai, all the work was slick. The ticker-tape welcome climaxing in a rousing reception at the Wankhede Stadium for the team showed how much the BCCI had planned it in detail. Shah can take credit for being the leader. More images of Shah stand out, his presence in Paris 2024 where he met the International Olympic Committee president Thomas Bach plus officials from the 2028 Los Angeles host committee. Cricket’s inclusion, again, in the Olympics is a big thing, and Shah was in the French capital as the BCCI secretary. At present, he is in Brisbane, engaged in talks with the organisers of the 2032 Olympics. For cricket to stay in the Olympic programme is important and Shah is already seen as proactive. For
those who may be tempted to make comparisons with his predecessors, whether in the BCCI or as ICC bosses like Shashank Manohar, Sharad Pawar and N Srinivasan, Shah is a young Turk. At 36, he has taken guard and looks set for a long innings.
