Samra ton in vain, Phillips fireworks guides NZ to S8s: T20 World Cup No…

Yuvraj Singh Samra is a left-handed top-order batter who represents Canada. Born on 29 September 2006 in Brampton, Ontario, he quickly rose through Canada’s domestic ranks before making his ODI and T20I debuts in 2025. Known for his aggressive stroke play and composure beyond his years, Samra combines clean ball-striking with the ability to anchor an innings, making him one of Canada’s most exciting young prospects.

He gained global attention during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, where he smashed a stunning 110 off 65 balls against the New Zealand in Chennai. At just 19, he became the youngest player to score a century in a T20 World Cup and the first from an Associate nation to reach the milestone. That innings announced him as a rising star on the international stage and a key figure in Canada’s cricketing future.
