After a dismal show of the Indian team in the T20 World Cup 2021, the Men in Blue will play the home series against New Zealand that starts on November 17, 2021. The team has been announced for the series and Sanju Samson has not been included in the team. Needless to say that, Samson's snub proved to be quite a heartbreaking one for the wicket-keeper and also his fans. Thus, after the snub, the Rajasthan Royals skipper took to social media and posted pictures of himself while fielding and displaying his athleticism while saving a boundary.

Even the fans ran the #JusticeForSamson trend on social media. Talking about Samson's post, he posted a collage of pictures and had no caption attached to it. Whereas a few fans flaunted his records, the others blasted out the BCCI for not supporting Samson. Rishabh Pant was chosen as the wicketkeeper for the series which obviously left no scope for Samson to make way into the team. Now, check out the post by Samson and the reactions below.

Samson was last seen in Indian colours while they travelled to Sri Lanka, part of the second string team, where he managed scores of 27, 7, and 0 in the three T20Is and 46 in the lone ODI (his maiden as well).
