Abhishek Sharma & Sanju Samson: The Dhurandhar Openers of India | India Today Conclave 2026

Indian cricket stars Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson opened up about India’s T20 World Cup victory, detailing their individual journeys and the team’s cultural shift. The duo, who formed a record-breaking opening partnership in the final, credited the team-first mindset instilled by captain Suryakumar Yadav and coach Gautam Gambhir. Samson spoke about his comeback after being dropped following a series against New Zealand, a turnaround that culminated in a Player of the Tournament performance. He revealed that personal milestones are secondary, a philosophy that led him to forego potential centuries for the team. Sharma discussed overcoming a pre-tournament hospitalization and the leadership’s unwavering support, even after he scored consecutive ducks. Both players emphasized the importance of their fathers in their careers and the collective focus on winning trophies over individual accolades.
