Samson smashes Hardik for six (X.com)
There is no denying that Sanju Samson has sheer class from top to bottom. And it was display on Monday, during Match 38 of IPL 2024 between Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians at Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur.
Coming to chase 180, Samson came to bat at No. 3 after Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal gave Rajasthan Royals a solid start. The RR skipper did not change his gear, and the way he smashed Hardik Pandya out of the park showed what audacity he has with his batting prowess.
Hardik, who took the new ball ahead of Jasprit Bumrah, came to bowl the 13th over of RR’s innings. The all-rounder bowled a slower one right at the slot. Samson took the gift with both hands and smashed it stylishly over long-on for an effortless six.
