‘I’ve Been Given Instructions To Be Ready…’: Sanju Samson Drops A Big Hint On His India Future

India wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson, who was ignored from the Indian squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2022, has been in some fantastic form off-lately. Though, the cricketer has been scoring consistently well this year, but Dinesh Karthik and Rishabh Pant were chosen over him for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022. However, he was given an opportunity to represent India in the just-concluded 3 match ODI series against South Africa. 

Sanju Samson was seen in top form, registering scores of 86*, 30*, and 2* in the three-match ODI series against South Africa. In the first ODI match, Samson played a knock against all odds and impressed one and all with his stunning strokeplay. Needing 30 runs in the final over, Sanju gave it his all, and in the end, Team India fell just 9 runs short.

Sanju Samson who is used to batting in the top-order, was seen batting at positions 5 and 6. On Tuesday, ahead of the 3rd ODI match against South Africa at  Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi, Sanju revealed that he was instructed last year to be ready to perform as the finisher in the Indian colours. He revealed:

“Absolutely, I have been practicing different kind of roles and I think last couple of years, I have put in time to understand different types of roles that I need to play in different teams. So, I am enjoying it,”

He added: “I have been given instructions to be ready to do this finishing role from last one year. Physically, I have been doing top-order batting but mentally I have been understanding the game better on how to react to situations better and how people have done it beautifully in the past. Learning from the history, so yes lot of learning has gone into this,”

The Indian cricket team ended the 3-match ODI series on a high-note, by defeating South Africa by 2-1 in the series.
