Sanju Samson has been named captain of the India A squad for the upcoming three-match one-day series against New Zealand A in Chennai.The news comes after the wicket-keeper batsman scored 15, 43*, 15, 30*, 6*, 54 and 12 in his last seven innings for the Men in Blue during their tour to West Indies and Zimbabwe.Samson failed to find a place in the Indian squad for the ICC T20 World Cup 2022. He was also ignored for the T20I series against Australia and South Africa.Thus, the Rajasthan Royals captain will look to grab the opportunity with both hands ahead of the upcoming ODI series against South Africa in October.Fans took to Twitter to express their gratitude while some, who felt Samson deserved to play in the upcoming ICC tournament in Australia, taunted the BCCI.Here are some of the reactions:Seemant@ErSeemant@BCCI Great opportunity..Best of luck @IamSanjuSamson@BCCI Great opportunity..Best of luck @IamSanjuSamsonRishi@Rishii1030@BCCI BCCI is cooling the issue of sanju samson.

The right-handed batter has not been in the reckoning across any formats for India since July 2021.The Mumbaikar will be keen to prove himself in the upcoming matches to make a comeback into the national team. He recently smashed a century against North East Zone in domestic cricket.Shaw will look to continue his exploits against the visitors to find a place in the ODI squad against the Proteas next month. The 22-year-old has, so far, played six ODIs and five Tests for India but has failed to live up to expectations.Here's how the Twitterati shared their reactions to Shaw’s comeback:Kam 🏎@KP07_@BCCI Prithvi Shaw is BACK@BCCI Prithvi Shaw is BACKCruq 6 2 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿@Cruq62@SuvTK7 Prithvi shaw 🥰🥰@SuvTK7 Prithvi shaw 😍🥰🥰Johns.@CricCrazyJohnsGreat to see Prithvi Shaw back in the India A team, he has 56.5 average and 125 strike rate in List A, best time to challenge for the spot in white-ball format as transition might happen very soon.48627Great to see Prithvi Shaw back in the India A team, he has 56.5 average and 125 strike rate in List A, best time to challenge for the spot in white-ball format as transition might happen very soon.Bittu@Bittuu_tweets@mufaddal_vohra Prithvi Shaw agamanam@mufaddal_vohra Prithvi Shaw agamanam https://t.co/6Hh8DrKb4jSaikrishna సాయికృష్ణ@Sai__Krishna__Prithvi Shaw after long long time. twitter.com/BCCI/status/15…BCCI@BCCINEWS - India "A" squad for one-day series against New Zealand "A" announced.Sanju Samson to lead the team for the same.More details here bcci.tv/articles/2022/…1346NEWS - India "A" squad for one-day series against New Zealand "A" announced.Sanju Samson to lead the team for the same.More details here 👇👇bcci.tv/articles/2022/…Prithvi Shaw after long long time. twitter.com/BCCI/status/15…Soorya Sesha@sooryasesha7Pretty good squad picked for the ODIs against NZ A.
