Sanju Samson in ICC T20 Rankings: Sanju Samson’s days are going well now. It is another matter that in his last match he was dismissed for nil against South Africa. But before this he scored two back-to-back century innings. He also became the first Indian batsman to do so. No Indian batsman has achieved this feat before. Meanwhile, after his brilliant performance, Sanju Samson seems to be getting a big boost in the ICC T20 rankings as well. He has made a huge leap in the rankings this time.
Sanju Samson jumps 27 places to rank 39
Before the start of the India vs South Africa T20 series, Sanju Samson was ranked 66 in the ICC T20 rankings. But after just two matches, he has jumped straight up 27 places and is now at number 39. His rating and ranking could have been better, but he was also dismissed for a wicket in the last match. When he played an innings of 107 runs in the first T20 match against South Africa. After this his rating went straight up to 550.
Sanju has a chance to improve his rating and ranking.
After this, Sanju could not play his role in the second T20 match, due to which he had to face defeat. He has a rating of 537 in the new rankings released by the ICC and is currently at the 39th position. The good thing is that Sanju still has two matches left in this series in South Africa. In this too, if his bat works, he can again achieve his all-time high ranking and maybe even reach the top 20. But for this he has to play another good innings. However, in the recent past Sanju has made the most of the opportunities that have come his way and has done what no other Indian batsman has been able to do in T20 international cricket.
