During the second innings of the encounter, in the 237-run chase, Sanju Samson smashed a fine knock of 121 runs in 51 balls at a strike rate of 237.25.
The wicket-keeper batter, Sanju Samson, has been picked in India’s Asia Cup 15-member squad. However, with the inclusion and responsibility of Shubman Gill as vice-captain, Samson is unlikely to get into the playing eleven of the side, as Jitesh Sharma could get a chance at number six in the batting department.

“To be very honest, I’m not much aware of the boys. It’s a bit shocking to see we have so much talent in Kerala cricket. I request that we put in some special eyes in the local games going on, especially for all the players. In the next one or two years, we should see one more guy playing for the country. And I can see that happening. With this talent, I don’t think that we are very far away.” Samson shed light during he interaction.
The century has been a strong message to the management from Samson, opening the batting, as he struggled with a sluggish knock of 22-ball 13 in the previous game in the middle order.
