Sanju Samson continued his sublime form in the T20 World Cup 2026 as he followed his 97 with a blistering 89 off 42 against England in the semi-final in Mumbai. Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson opened the innings for India but the host lost Sharma early for 9. 

Later, Sanju was joined by Ishan Kishan and the two stitched a partnership of 97 runs. Ishan departed for 39 off 18. Samson continued his brilliant touch and helped India dominate the opposition with the bat. The wicket-keeper batter was dropped early in his innings by Harry Brook but made full use of it eventually. 

India had earlier rode on Samson’s unbeaten 97 against West Indies in the virtual quarter-final to march ahead in the semis.
