Kerala now only wants to enjoy his cricket and play the game in his own way. The 31-year-old was one of the heroes behind India’s ICC T20 World Cup 2026 success by hammering three 90+ scores in a row. But soon after the World Cup, his form dipped and he was left out of the team.
Amid the demands for his return to the national setup, Sanju Samson shared that he had already decided not to become part of the ‘rat race’ before the ICC T20 World Cup 2026.
Sanju Samson said on JioStar's show 'Believe' as quoted by IANS: “I realized that there is a constant rat race in our country, and I decided before the 2026 T20 World Cup that I would not be part of it. I just want to enjoy the game. By God's grace, I have achieved a lot. I am 31 now, and I have a few years left. So, I have decided to play on my own terms. No one will tell me how to bat or what to do. Sanju will decide for Sanju.”
