Outstanding century by Sanju Samson: intent, strike rate, quality of strokes, running between wickets — everything!
— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) March 29, 2019
Sanju Samson caresses the ball, David Warner pulverises it. Two different ways of scoring runs!
— Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) March 29, 2019
Strategic timeout or in other words – Stop the bleeding of runs for few minutes. #SRHvRR

No one doubts his pedigree but some consistency from #SanjuSamson can surely land him in national reckoning? isn't it? #IPL2019 #RRvSRH #AskTheExpert @StarSportsIndia

I normally don’t like to talk about individuals in cricket. But seeing his skills I am glad to note that Sanju Samson is currently the best Wicketkeeper batsman in India. For me he should be batting number 4 in the World Cup @BCCI @rajasthanroyals @IPL @StarSportsIndia

#SanjuSamson takes on the best bowling side of #IPL2019 and how!
Destroying the likes of Bhuvi, Rashid amongst others.
1st century of this year and is well supported by the skipper #Rahane!#SRHvRR— Purav Mehta (@puravmehta01) March 29, 2019

Virender Sehwag’s tweet for Sanju Samson’s Century is pure gold
Sanju …
One Man….Many Shots ..Wonderful innings from Samson
— Virender Sehwag (@virendersehwag) March 29, 2019
I know he is not consistent enough at the domestic level etc, but when on song, how many Indians can bat like Sanju Samson does? Not many. 👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏#RRvsSRH
— Sanjay Manjrekar (@sanjaymanjrekar) March 29, 2019
Sanju Samson is the first to score 2 centuries in IPL before turning 25 years of age. #SRHvRR

Almost 1850 kms away from Mohali in Hyderabad, Sanju Samson has smashed the first hundred of #IPL2019 in just 54 balls against SRH!#OneFamily #CricketMeriJaan #MumbaiIndians #SRHvRR

Sanju Samson….incredible talent. 123 runs in the last ten overs. Bhuvi went for 45 in the last two overs. Unbelievable. #SRHvRR #IPL

annual reminder of just how delicious sanju samson's strokeplay can be #SRHvRR

This is the eighth 100+ opening stand for SRH in IPL – David Warner involved in all of them!#SRHvRR

Tweets on SRH’s win
Bhuvi’s death bowling in the first two #IPL games under the scanner. Not good for #SRH….not good for Team India either. Keeping in mind that India might take only three fast bowlers in the squad for the World Cup. #SRHvRR

When some one is in the mood like David Warner was even 200 seems a minor total. How distructive his inning was? #SRHvRR

That rest did Warner bloody good. Thirsty for runs. Looking great for SRH!#SRHvRR

Respect Rashid the bowler but love Rashid the batsman 👻 @rashidkhan_19
— Gaurav Kapur (@gauravkapur) March 29, 2019
Great win for SRH. Their highest chase ever in the IPL. A 100 run opening stand always sets up the tempo for such a big chase. Nice Quickfire innings from VJS. And Boy, Rashid Khan can bat, he is a huge difference between the sides #SRHvRR
— Hemang Badani (@hemangkbadani) March 29, 2019
Warner-Bairstow-Kane-Shankar. Expecting #SRH to have a different strategy this year. No longer the team that defends low totals but the team that posts and chases down big totals. Bowling looking a little concern anyway…. #SRHvRR #IPL
— Aakash Chopra (@cricketaakash) March 29, 2019
Rashid Khan proving again why he is such a superstar. And David Warner is truly back with a bang. #SRHvRR
