Sanju Samson, the Indian cricketer, is facing criticism for not being sent to bat in yesterday’s match against Bangladesh (BAN). Amid the debate, his pre-match comments have gone viral on social media.
Samson compared his career to legendary actors, saying, “Mohanlal has been acting for 40 years and recently received the Dadasaheb Phalke Award. I’ve been playing for the country for 10 years. You can’t always play the hero; sometimes you have to take on villain and joker roles as well.” He humorously introduced himself as “Sanju Mohanlal Samson”, reflecting his playful take on criticism and the challenges of adjusting to different roles in the team.
Fans and commentators are sharing his remarks widely, praising his honest and witty perspective on cricket and team dynamics. His statement highlights the importance of flexibility, patience, and accepting various roles in professional sports.
