Sanju Samson made history on November 8 in Durban, South Africa, becoming the first Indian to score consecutive T20I centuries. Following his 47-ball 111 against Bangladesh, he continued his blistering form with a 107-run knock off 47 balls, striking 7 boundaries and 9 sixes. His record-breaking performance included becoming the first Indian wicketkeeper to hit two T20I centuries and the fourth Indian with multiple T20I hundreds. Under captain Suryakumar Yadav's leadership, Samson's partnership of 66 with Yadav powered India to 202/8, putting South Africa under significant pressure in the opening match of the series.
