Hayden says Samson has the most powerful weapon in T20 cricket, strength. He called Samson a ‘master blaster’ as he has the ability to play big shots against spinners and fast bowlers with ease. “Sanju Samson was batting like a dream, scoring 86 off 46 balls. He has proved his worth time and again… He has been a master blaster throughout the tournament,” Hayden said on Star Sports’ show ‘Cricket Live’. And the fast bowling is handling both with mastery.”
The former cricketer added, “He plays his innings well. He has strength. And power is a big thing in T20 cricket. What stands out, however, is his commitment to his team. He just needs a bit of luck, especially at the end of the match.” He is the third highest run scorer.
