IND vs SA 1st T20I Live: Samson on his century –
“I was in a zone, it was automatically flowing, so I let it flow. [what is intent for you?] It’s a good question actually, if the ball is there to be hit, go for it. Focus on one ball at a time and that helps. The wicket does play a big role here, extra bounce and coming from India we do take time to understand the wicket. There’s a huge wind blowing from one end and their bowlers bowled very well, our bowlers too would like to copy from them. [on his current form] If I think a lot I will get emotional. I waited for this moment for 10 years, I’m very happy, grateful and blessed. But I would like to keep my feet on the ground, be in the moment and enjoy. Looks a really good score, if we bowl to our 80% potential we should be fine,” said the right-handed batter.
