Sanju Samson opened for India against Zimbabwe in the ICC T20 World Cup, scoring 24 off 15 balls with a four and two sixes, helping India register their highest opening partnership of 48 runs in the tournament alongside Abhishek Sharma. Despite a promising start and positive backing from former players like Irfan Pathan and Ravichandran Ashwin, Samson was dismissed early, continuing a pattern of not converting quick starts into big scores. Sharma, meanwhile, overcame previous struggles to score a half-century.
