No better sight, and result seeing Samson bat the way he has been of late. Maybe he competes with Pant for ‘keepers slot in T20s but if he’s given the confidence his impact as a batsman is multifold; not just T20s, Sanju is a fine ODI batsman as well #IndvsSA #T20

When Samson plays like that, the entire cricketing world sits to watch him bat. Sensational century today. First Indian and fourth overall to crack consecutive tons in T20Is. #SAvIND

Even Sanju Samson's heart touching divine shots is failing to distract me from that purple, blue, light blue, yellow and green color combination in scorecard.
