Incidentally, Samson was part of the camp at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru for white ball players before joining the RR camp in Mumbai on Tuesday (March 15).

A brainchild of India head coach Rahul Dravid, the camp was organised in view of the ICC T20 World Cup in Australia later this year. It was also attended by many India internationals, including KL Rahul, Shikhar Dhawan, Yuzvendra Chahal and Ishan Kishan, among others.

Meanwhile, Aa new challenge beckons Samson as he is all set to lead a new bunch of players for the Royals in IPL 2022. The Kerala-born player, who had a stellar season with the bat in 2021, scoring 484 runs in 14 games, will hope to continue leading Rajashan Royals from the front.
