Ravi Shastri explains how Sanju Samson can score big like Virat Kohli in the IPL 2022. Former India head coach Ravi Shastri has emphasized the changes Sanju Samson must make to his game in order to score big like Virat Kohli.
Sanju Samson, the skipper of the Rajasthan Royals, is one of the most exciting talents in world cricket.
