Indian cricketer Sanju Samson was seen in absolute beast mode while competing in a local football tournament. In a fan-uploaded video on X, Samson could be seen taking corners, performing dribbles, and taking some shots in a football match. The post read, “#SanjuSamson playing football in a local sevens tournament." Seeing Samson perform with such charisma, his Indian Premier League franchise, Rajasthan Royals, uploaded their reaction to X in a post. In that update, the Royals reshared the same post via their official account while asking, “Fancy an extra striker in Sanju Samson, @KerlalaBlasters?”.

The footage of the Samson football match attracted the attention of many fans. One of them wrote, “You guys didn’t put a clause in his contract for playing other sports?!” Another one wrote, “Good backup option.”

Samson recently visited South Africa to be a part of India’s ODI series. He didn’t get any chance to bat in India’s opening ODI against the Proteas at the Wanderers Stadium, as the visitors won by eight wickets. In their second game, Samson failed to find impact again as he was dismissed for 12 runs on 23 balls by Beuran Hendricks. That match took place at St. George’s Oval on December 19.

However, he made a statement in the third and deciding ODI at Boland Park. South Africa won the toss and decided to bowl first in the match. Samson stepped up big for his side, smashing an amazing century.
