Rajasthan Royals v Kings XI Punjab - IPL T20 Match

Sanju Samson is a young wicket-keeper batsman who made his first-class debut at the age of 17 for Kerala against Vidarbha. He is a solid player who has good batting technique and solid wicket-keeping skills. He usually bats at number 3 in the IPL and has played some brilliant innings at that position.

He was the highest run-getter for Kerala in the 2017-18 Syed Mushtaq Ali and the Ranji Trophy. In 2018, Rajasthan Royals picked him again for a price of 8 crores. He justified his price by scoring brilliant 441 runs in the season which also included an amazing innings of 92 against RCB. Samson would be a good number 3 in this batting order as he would provide stability to the batting line-up.
