Sanju Samson has informed head coach Gautam Gambhir and skipper Rohit Sharma that he wants to play Test cricket for India. There, however, remain certain conditions to fulfill.
Not yet a certainty in Team India’s white-ball teams, but Sanju Samson isn’t giving up hopes of making his Test debut for the nation. The wicket-keeper batter, who hit his maiden T20I ton in the match against Bangladesh, has made his dream of representing the country in red-ball cricket public. In fact, Samson has already had a chat with Team India’s leadership group – head coach Gautam Gambhir and skipper Rohit Sharma – about his Test ambitions. What’s promising is the fact that Rohit and Gambhir, apparently, also see Samson as a player who can do well in Test cricket.
