Sanju Samson is good. But @imVkohli give preference to tattoo and gelled hair with beard.

So Fuck off Sanju Samson. You don't look good enough to woo Kohli
Highest score in domestic List A games!
Well played Sanju Samson! You don't often see such fiery stuffs often in domestic circuit. He has proved enough to book a place in national team and definitely deserves a chance. #VijayHazare @IamSanjuSamson

More misery on Rishabh Pant!
@BCCI don't know what is stopping you from selecting Sanju Samson in International team. You are just biased towards Rishabh Pant. #sanjusamson

Sanju Samson, whatta a fine knock. The talent that's brewing in Indian cricket is unimaginable #INDvSA #VijayHazareTrophy. And here we have #SouthAfrica giving chances to quota picks like Bavuma

In transit in Frankfurt on the way to the @IPUparliament meeting in Belgrade when i get the news that Thiruvananthapuram’s own Sanju Samson has hit 200 in a Vijay Hazare 50 over game! Ten sixes, 20 fours. Don’t know if our white-ball selectors were watching?! pic.twitter.com/tnJmf6QNRM
