Sanju's performance in T20 WC reminded me of Gilchrist: Hayden
Ex-Australia batter Matthew Hayden praised India opener Sanju Samson's performance in the T20 World Cup 2026, calling him "dangerous". "[He] reminded me...of Gilly (Adam Gilchrist)," he said, adding, "Gilly didn't really turn up in the World Cup [2007], and suddenly, in the final...he turns up and gets a big hundred." Sanju didn't play in three of the first four matches.
