Samson Wins First ICC Monthly Award after T20 World Cup Bench Scores
Sanju Samson grabs the ICC Men's Player of the Month nod for March. Picture this: 97 not out, 89, and another 89—all from India's T20 World Cup bench.
Sanju Samson picks up the ICC Men's Player of the Month for March. India hauled him off the bench in the T20 World Cup final. Ninety-seven not out. Then 89. Another 89 after that. Those knocks clinched the title. Oh, and that IPL 115 not out off 56 balls against DC? Gave CSK their first win of the season.
Coach Eric Simons spots MS Dhoni's calm rubbing off on him. Setbacks hit early in his career—tested the kid hard. Self-belief. That's his line now.
Amelia Kerr grabs the women's award. She piled up 176 ODI runs, snared 18 wickets.
