Indian wicket-keeper batsman Sanju Samson has expressed his desire to hit 6 sixes, which is his biggest cricketing dream before hanging his shoes in international cricket.
Sanju Samson has suddenly publicized a lot of publicity and media attention after being associated with CSK for the upcoming season of IPL. However, nothing has officially confirmed anything officially by Super Kings or Rajasthan Royals.
However, it has been reported that Samson is unhappy with Rajasthan Royals management and has formally expressed his desire to leave the franchise and go to another team through trade or convenience in mini-trauma.

Sanju Samson expressed the biggest cricketing dream
Sanju recently attended the former team partner Ravichandran Ashwin’s YouTube Podcast, ‘Kuti Stories with Ashwin’. The 30-year-old right-handed wicket-keeper of Kerala made his debut as a 20-year-old youth against Zimbabwe in 2015.
Samson has played 42 T20 International and 16 ODI games for men in Blue, and last year he also became the first batsman to score three international centuries in a calendar year in international cricket.
In international cricket after a decade, where he has played in 42 matches, scored 861 runs with three centuries, Ashwin asked him to name a cricketing dream, which he wants to tick before hanging his shoes, to which Samson replied, “Probably hit the same six in one over”
Batsman with 6 sixes in an over in an international game
As Sanju Samson expressed his desire to hit 6 sixes in an over, it reminds us of an over against Bangladesh in the last T20I at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium during the T20 series last year. He had almost fulfilled his dream with 5 sixes in the same proposal.
Former Indian all -rounder, Yuvraj Singh, was the first cricketer to hit a six in the same over in the T20I match against England in the 2007 ICC T20 World Cup. Former West Indies player Kieron Pollard also holds a record of 6 sixes in an over against Sri Lanka in 2021.
Nepal batsman Deepender Singh Ari and Bulgaria’s Manan Bashir hit such 6 sixes in the over against Qatar and Gibraltar respectively. South African Herschelle Gibbs and USA Batter Jascaron Malhotra have also hit 6 sixes in a single over in a 50 -over format.
Sanju Samson Asia Cup is likely to be India’s opener for 2025
Indian wicket-keeper batsman Sanju Samson has been a star in the shortest format of the game as Gautam Gambhir handed over his initial role and showed immense faith in the batsman. He has since scored three centuries, one against Bangladesh and the other two against South Africa.
In the upcoming Asia Cup 2025, India is eager to bring back Shubman Gill, promising batsman, and his arrival would be a query on whether Gill can initiate India’s proceedings with a partner, either Samson or Abhishek Sharma.
