NEW DELHI: Many believe that Sanju Samson has been continuously overlooked by the team management and the selectors too. He is selected, features in a match or two, and then is dropped. He has often been seen either warming the benches or carrying drinks and replacement bats for his teammates.
Sanju was just 21 when he wore the Indian jersey for the first time in a T20I match against Zimbabwe in Harare in 2015. He was then handed an ODI cap in 2021, almost 6 years after his debut in the shortest format of the game.
