By Abhishek Kumar

Sanju Samson is once again making headlines. While people are talking about IPL 2026 trades and Team India’s squad for the Asia Cup 2025, Samson reminded everyone of his batting talent in Kerala.
His name was the first to appear in the IPL 2026 trade window. At the same time, he is also in the race for Asia Cup selection. With so much talk happening around him, Samson finally returned to the cricket field after the IPL 2025 season. And he made his comeback in style.
He played an exhibition match organised by the Kerala Cricket Association (KCA). Representing the Secretary XI, Sanju scored a brilliant 54 runs. His innings became the turning point of the match. Thanks to his knock, Secretary XI managed to beat President XI in a nail-biting contest by just one wicket.
Why this innings is important ?
This innings was important not only for his team but also for his personal career. Many cricket fans and experts believe this knock has boosted his chances of making it into the Indian squad for the upcoming Asia Cup.
Sanju has always been seen as a talented batsman but has often struggled to get a regular place in Team India. With this performance, he has once again sent a strong message to the selectors that he is ready for bigger challenges.
For Sanju Samson, this fifty could prove to be more than just runs on the board – it could be the start of another big opportunity in his international career.
