'They destroyed 10 years of my son but...' - Sanju Samson's father thanks Gambhir and SKY for T20I faith
Samson's father feels his son deserves to be in the playing XI consistently
Sanju Samson's father, Samson Viswanath, has expressed his gratitude towards Gautam Gambhir and Suryakumar Yadav for showing faith in his son's abilities. He also took a dig at the Indian team management for not giving Samson a consistent run in the playing XI.
Viswanath's comments came after Samson's impressive performance in the recently concluded T20I series against Sri Lanka. Samson scored 57 runs in two innings, including a match-winning 39 in the second T20I.
Viswanath said that he was happy to see his son perform well in the T20I series. He also said that Samson deserves to be in the playing XI consistently.
"I am very happy to see Sanju perform well in the T20I series. He has worked very hard for this. He deserves to be in the playing XI consistently," Viswanath said.
Viswanath also thanked Gambhir and Yadav for supporting Samson. He said that their faith in Samson has given him a lot of confidence.
"I would like to thank Gautam Gambhir and Suryakumar Yadav for showing faith in Sanju. Their support has given him a lot of confidence," Viswanath said.
However, Viswanath also expressed his disappointment with the Indian team management for not giving Samson a consistent run in the playing XI.
"I am disappointed that the Indian team management is not giving Sanju a consistent run in the playing XI. He has the ability to win matches for India," Viswanath said.
Samson has been in and out of the Indian team for the past few years. He has played 11 T20Is and scored 296 runs at an average of 32.88. He has also played 7 ODIs and scored 112 runs at an average of 18.66.
Samson is a talented batsman who has the ability to score runs quickly. He is also a good fielder and can contribute to the team with his bowling.
It remains to be seen whether the Indian team management will give Samson a consistent run in the playing XI. However, his recent performances in the T20I series against Sri Lanka have shown that he is a valuable asset to the team.
