Sanju Samson can leave Gambhir behind in terms of Most runs in the T-20 at Rajkot Stadium
Leaving behind the disappointment of two matches, Sanju would like to play a big innings in the third T20. He has scored 841 runs in 39 T20 International matches so far. He has to score 92 runs in Rajkot to surpass Gambhir in the list of batsmen who have scored the most runs for India in the shortest format of cricket. Gambhir ended his T20 career with 932 runs.
Sanju Samson made his debut for India in 2015. He remained out of the national team for the next 4 years. After returning in 2019, Samson has been constantly in and out of the team. He was a member of the team that won the 2024 T20 World Cup. In the absence of continuous players, he has now confirmed his place in the national T20 team. He scored three centuries in this format last year.
