Sanju Samson is presently not a part of India’s ongoing T20I collection towards New Zealand. He was a part of the squad for the T20I collection towards Sri Lanka. However, he was dominated out of the collection after hurting his left knee whereas making an attempt to area a ball close to the boundary rope in the course of the first T20I on January 3. He has not performed a aggressive match since then. Recently, Samson posted a photograph of himself with a motorcycle on Instagram. West Indies star batter Shimron Hetmyer, who’s Samson’s teammate at Indian Premier League (IPL) crew Rajasthan Royals, was concerned in a banter concerning the picture.

“Not a bad look for u @imsanjusamson … hopefully u no what to do with that machine,” Hetmyer commented on the picture.

“@shetmyer hahaha Hettie…yeah and I know what to do with you next time we meet!!” Samson replied.

Recently, India head coach Rahul Dravid cited the examples of Sanju Samson, KL Rahul, Ishan Kishan, Rishabh Pant, and KS Bharat from the present crop of gamers who fall within the class of true ‘wicket-keeper batters’.

“We always looking for a wicketkeeper-batsman, there is no question about it. I think since there has been MS Dhoni, in white-ball cricket, the days of specialist wicketkeepers are gone unfortunately. We are lucky and we are fortunate that all of the guys who are in contention, even in this team you know whether it’s Ishan Kishan or KS Bharat are both good batsmen and have done well in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Bharat hasn’t played but Ishan has obviously done well as a batsman,” Dravid stated in response to a question from a reporter within the presser.
