How many runs did Sanju Samson score in Kochi Blue Tigers vs Thrissur Titans match?
Batting first after losing the toss in Thiruvananthapuram, Kochi Blue Tigers made an aggressive start. By the end of 10 overs, the side had reached 84/1 with Sanju Samson leading the charge.
The Kerala star reached his half-century in just 26 balls - eventually scoring 89 off 46. His knock included 9 sixes and 4 boundaries - showing the kind of clean hitting that has made him a crowd favourite.
Mohammed Shanu supported him at the other end with 22 runs off 26 balls while Vinoop Manoharan was the only batter dismissed early, caught for 5.
This was Samson's second standout innings of the tournament. In Kochi's previous outing against Aries Kollam Sailors, he hammered 121 off 51 balls to guide his team to win.
His tournament so far reads one hundred and one fifty in just three innings. With Kochi eyeing a strong campaign, Samson's form could be the key factor in their push for the title.
