New Delhi: Sanju Samson is in a very interesting phase of his career. He is forever knocking on the doors of Indian selectors but a secure spot in the Indian team has eluded him. His name doesn’t figure in the squad that’s picked to play for India in the T20 World Cup in Oct-Nov. He does have the responsibility of captaining Rajasthan Royals, though. “Things are much clear. It’s important to go into the team with a clear mind. There will be no doubts about the selection when IPL resumes,” Samson told TOI.
Days before the second half of IPL got underway, he sat down for a session with Jason Holder, captain of the Barbados Royals in the Caribbean Premier League.
Being a young captain of a developing team isn’t the easiest task, especially when you are yet to establish yourself as an international cricketer. Holder has a solid firsthand experience with West Indies and Samson could only pick his brains.
