With neat and tidy glovework and sound batting technique, Sanju Samson was once considered as India's next limited overs wicket-keeper batsman after MS Dhoni decided to call curtains on his career. However, inconsistency has been Samson's main problem so far. Despite knowing that, Rajasthan Royals spent INR 8 crores on him.

The main architect behind Samson's RR contract must be very happy now as the batsman has once again started to knock on the doors of the national selectors. He has scored 239 runs in 6 games at an average of over 45. His strike rate of 150 is just as prolific. Samson's knock of 92 runs from just 45 deliveries against RCB speaks volume about the talent this lad possesses. He needed to utilize it well and he is doing that in this season.
