Mon Jan 27 08:53:56 UTC 2025: ## Samson Eyes Gambhir’s T20 Record in India-England Series
**Ahmedabad, India (January 27, 2025)** – Team India opener Sanju Samson is aiming to surpass head coach Gautam Gambhir’s record for most runs in T20 Internationals for India. Currently, Samson has scored 841 runs in 39 T20I matches, trailing Gambhir’s 932 runs from 37 matches by just 91 runs.
With the ongoing India-England T20I series, Samson has a prime opportunity to break this record. Cricket analysts believe that if Samson bats for at least 10 overs in the upcoming match, he stands a strong chance of surpassing Gambhir’s mark.
While Samson’s focus is on Gambhir’s record, the overall T20I run tally for India is still dominated by Rohit Sharma (4,231 runs), followed by Virat Kohli (4,188 runs) and Suryakumar Yadav (2,582 runs). Samson has a considerable way to go to reach those heights.
Samson’s recent form has been impressive, displaying consistent fifties and centuries in T20 matches, fueling anticipation for his performance in the remaining matches of the series. His pursuit of Gambhir’s record adds an interesting subplot to the already exciting India-England series.
