Sanju Samson smashed a brilliant 42-ball century in the Kerala Cricket League, scoring 121 runs off 51 balls with 14 fours and 7 sixes. His knock powered Kochi Blue Tigers to their third straight win, chasing a massive 237-run target. Samson, set to feature in India’s Asia Cup 2025 squad, has strengthened his case as an opener with this innings. Despite sharing the crease with his brother, his celebration was ice-cold. Meanwhile, reports suggest Samson may leave Rajasthan Royals before IPL 2026, with Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders showing interest, though no final deal has been made yet. (PC: HT)
