Though for India and many of the players in the Asia Cup squad, this tournament has been a perfect start to their T20 World Cup preparations. Such players would include names like Kuldeep Yadav and Abhishek Sharma; however, Sanju Samson has been very unfortunate with limited opportunities to showcase his calibre.
Former Indian player Sanjay Manjrekar went on for an engaging chat session with Indian wicket-keeper batter Sanju Samson. Here are the glimpses from the same conversation.
"I am really enjoying both the roles; it's a bit different batting at no. 5 and coming to do a different role. To be very honest, I think I have received some really honest feedback from my Captain and coach; the communication has to be clear, and that has been very clear right from the start of the tournament," Sanju said on his new role.
"Try and hit those few sixes and make an impact. The things I used to do, however, sometimes come out, while on some days they don't. So, having that acceptance also really helps," he further added.

He continued, "So, which is the position you are most comfortable batting in?"
He further stated, "I too have been playing for my country for the last 10 years, so I cannot always be playing in a hero role; I need to adapt to different roles like being the villain or the joker, and I need to play around."
