IPL 2026: Time for Sanju Samson to silence doubters

If he has to compel the national selectors to consider him for the second wicketkeeper’s role, he may have to replicate the T20 World Cup performances for CSK.

It’s up to Samson to dispel doubts. Tuesday will be a test of his technique and temperament to play the lead batter.
