Indian talented batsman Sanju Samson has cleared the Yo-Yo test with flying colors. In fact, Sanju was shown the exit doors from the India A side after he failed to clear the Test. Thus, he had to miss India A tour to England. The right-hander who has impressed with his immaculate timing scored 15.6 on his previous Yo-Yo examination.

As the passing score of the Yo-Yo test is 16.1, Sanju had to deal with the disappointment. However, the Kerala batsman was able to bounce back strong as he has now scored 17.4 in the much talked about fitness test. Interestingly, Samson has made the transformation in his fitness in just four weeks.

Thus, clearing the Fitness test would have given a shot in the arm to the talented batsman.

Meanwhile, Samson had scored a truckload of runs in the Indian Premier League. The right-hander scored 441 runs in the 15 matches he played for the Rajasthan Royals in the IPL 2018. Therefore, he was unlucky to miss out on the England tour as he was in good form.

Furthermore, Samson received praise from Rajasthan Royals mentor Shane Warne. The former legendary spinner said that Samson is the future of Indian cricket.

In fact, Sanju is a great timer of the ball. He has all the time in the book to play his shorts and he has his bases covered as far as his technique is concerned.

After clearing his Fitness Test, Sanju Samson will hope to get his chances in the India A side in the coming time.

Samson took to his Instagram handle to share the good news. He also gave his gratitude to his well-wishers. Samson post read as, Yo-Yo !! Passed … From 15.6 to 17.3 in 4 weeks !!! Thank you all for your support and wishes !!
