Sanju Samson is currently in the prime phase of his cricketing career. Recently, he scored two consecutive centuries for India in T20 Internationals. However, during this period he also had zero results. Now, Sanju has earned a special place in the new T20 rankings released by the ICC. This has never been done before. He is currently at his highest ranking ever.
Sanju Samson progresses in ICC T20 rankings
Sanju Samson has made a huge improvement this time in the T20 rankings released by the ICC. He jumped 17 places directly, ranking 22nd. His current rating is 598, which is the first time he has reached this score. Until a few days ago, Sanju’s place in the Indian team was not confirmed, but at the same time, he took advantage of the opportunities he got and scored a lot of runs. It is foreseeable that Sanju’s bat will continue to do so in future series and his ranking will reach even greater heights.
Sanju scored two centuries against South Africa alone.
Sanju Samson scored an outstanding 107 runs in the first match of the four-match series against South Africa. After that, he went out twice without opening an account. But in the final game of the series, he once again scored an unbeaten 109 runs and dominated. Sanju will now represent his Kerala team in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy where he is expected to perform similarly.
