‘Numbers do not tell the whole story’: Sanju Samson reflects cricket news in international cricket on 10 years

Indian cricketer Sanju Samson marked an important milestone in his career on July 19, 2025, completing 10 years in international cricket. The 30-year-old wicketkeeper-Better reflected the occasion with a social media post in 2015 with his start against Zimbabwe since his start. Samson shared on social media, “Today is a symbol of 10 years of my international cricket. The number cannot tell you the whole story. Samson’s International Cricket Tour began in a T20 match against Zimbabwe in Harare on July 19, 2015. In his debut match, he batted in number 7 positions, scoring 19 runs off 24 balls in search of India’s Zimbabwe’s 145/7 target, although India eventually lost the match by 10 runs. During his career, Samson has maintained a presence in Indian cricket, especially through his performance with Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League (IPL). However, their position in the national team setup has not been consistent over the years. The year 2024 proved to be a success period in Samson’s international career. He was part of India’s T20 World Cup winning squad and demonstrated his batting skills within two months with three notable centuries. His centenary-scoring streak started with a knock of 111 runs against Bangladesh in Hyderabad. He followed it with another century, scoring 107 runs against South Africa in Durban. The third century came into quick succession, as it remained unbeaten against 109 against South Africa in Johannesburg.

These demonstrations highlighted Samson’s attacker cricket style and his ability to contribute significantly to Team India’s success. Three centuries in such a short deadline represented their most successful stage in international cricket. A decade of visit has seen Samson developing from a young, dynamic player for an experienced member of the Indian cricket team. His role as a wicketkeeper-better added to the price in his presence in the team, offering flexibility in combination with the team. Despite the statistical aspects of his career, not completely reflecting his ability, Samson’s positive attitude towards his international career is clear in his anniversary message. His emphasis on the journey rather than the number shows his attitude on his cricket career. Harare represents the development of Samson as an international cricketer to be a part of a World Cup winning team from its beginning, which includes both challenges and achievements in his career, which is ten years.
