Fans on Twitter reacted after former Sri Lankan cricketer Kumar Sangakkara lavished rich praise on Indian batter, Sanju Samson, by saying that he wants to see the keeper batter getting a long rope in the Indian Cricket Team.
“I want to see Sanju Samson getting long run in the Indian team,” says Kumar Sangakkara
It’s fair to say that Sanju Samson has been one of the most talented cricketers in Indian Cricket. But he hasn’t been given a consistent run in the team due to a lack of space in the Indian side.
But despite getting limited opportunities, he has been performing well. The right-hander has been a consistent performer in the domestic circuit, IPL and the limited opportunities in the national side. He did a good job against West Indies and Zimbabwe before playing staggering knocks against a full-strength South African team.
Samson then played only ODI against New Zealand and was benched for the next two games due to team combination before getting rested for Bangladesh ODIs.
He has now found himself in the T20I side but was dropped from the ODI team for the Sri Lanka series. With the team going through a transition, it is expected that Samson will get a longer rope in the T20Is.
Sangakkara also backed Samson to get a longer rope in the side. While saying on Star Sports, he said: “I want to see Sanju Samson getting long run in Indian team”.
