Sanju Samson made his international debut in the year 2015 against Zimbabwe and was not handed so many chances to make his case to be a regular starter for Team India. But his IPL showcase has been immaculate, which has made the fans wonder why he has been overlooked by the selectors over the years. Under his leadership, RR has lost just one match in the nine matches that they have played and is the number one team in the Points table. The 2024 IPL season has been spectacular for the stumper and he will aim to continue his form in the T20 World Cup.
