NEW DELHI: Sanju Samson has been in scintillating form, especially in T20 Internationals, recently becoming the first Indian to score back-to-back centuries in the format. His promotion to the opening slot by India's new captain Suryakumar Yadav and management under Gautam Gambhir has proven to be a game-changer, with Samson delivering consistent performances at the top of the order.
Former India cricketer Dinesh Karthik believes Samson has now solidified his place as India's T20I opener.
