Former India batter Suresh Raina believes that Sanju Samson should bat at No. 3 for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season, saying the position would provide balance to the team’s batting order.

Samson is coming to the IPL on the back of some great knocks in the recently-concluded ICC T20 World Cup, where the wicketkeeper-batter scored back-to-back half-centuries in the Super Eights match against West Indies, the semi-final vs England and the summit clash against New Zealand.
