Sanju Samson: The Undervalued Big Hitter Missing from Team India’s ODI World Cup Squad

2023-09-29 20:30:00
There are many people who are disappointed that Sanju Samson did not get a place in Team India’s ODI World Cup squad. They all want a big hitter like Sanju in the Indian team. Apart from the World Cup team, Sanju did not get a place in the team for the Asia Cup, Asian Games and the series against Australia.

It is not because of poor performance that Sanju is not getting a chance. Sanju did not get the support or opportunity that many of his contemporaries get. Suryakumar Yadav was once again supported by the team management despite ducking in three consecutive matches against Australia.

Surya proved to be the X factor in the team after shining in the ODI series against Aussies. Sanju is missing out on such constant support. In any case, the star may still get a call to the World Cup team…

If a wicketkeeper is needed…

Currently India is considering three wicket keepers in white ball cricket. The first choice is KL Rahul. Second choice left-handed batsman Ishan Kishan. Sanju Samson has the third consideration in the group.

Sanju will be called upon as a replacement if there is a situation where one of the wicketkeepers in the current team is unable to play in the World Cup. India’s ODI World Cup 2019 squad had four wicketkeepers!

Will the reserve players be announced?

India has already announced the 15-member squad for the ODI World Cup. Apart from this, the ICC has not announced the reserve players. Hence BCCI has not announced any names of reserve players.

Or if the reserve players are announced then the names of three players will be announced by Team India. In that case, Sanju Samson is the player who should be given first priority in the reserve line as the next batter.

The record in ODIs is not bad

Sanju Samson, who has played 13 ODIs for India so far, has scored 390 runs. He scored three half-centuries with an impressive average of 55.71. Sanju Samson’s highest score in ODI cricket is 86.

Sanju is considered more in T20 than ODI. The actor has attracted more attention through IPL. But the selectors can’t pretend they didn’t see the excellent record in ODIs.

No need to play in the Asian Games

Apart from the World Cup, Sanju Samson has not been named in the squad for the Asian Games. Even former players are saying that it was unfair not to consider Sanju as the captain of the Asian Games team. But it is better for Sanju not to play the Asian Games.

India has sent relatively junior players to the Asian Games. Rituraj Gaekwad is the captain of the team. Sanju has nothing much to prove in the Asian Games. Making a place in the national team should be the main goal of the star
