With the series on the line and getting an opportunity to bat at number 3, Sanju Samson grabbed the opportunity with both hands and scored a maiden international hundred. Samson who made his international debut in 2015 is featuring in only his 16th ODI but his knock of 108 off 114 would definitely advocate for him getting a longer rope in the Indian Playing 11.

Following a hundred eight years after his maiden international appearance, netizens have lauded the Rajasthan Royals' skipper's innings.
