Sanju Samson had an outstanding performance in the Indian Premier League 2024 for the Rajasthan Royals. The RR captain became one of the tournament’s best scorers with 531 runs in 15 innings. He was added to India’s T20 World Cup 2024 roster due to an impressive performance, but the batter was not allowed to play in any of the matches. He went across Zimbabwe and scored a fifty-six in the fifth Twenty20 International.
Sanju was left out of the ODI team while India was on a white-ball tour of Sri Lanka, although his deputy Parag was able to play in both T20Is and ODIs
Samsom is still included in the T20I team, though, as Suryakumar Yadav has been selected as the team’s captain. In response to the Kerala batter’s rejection, former Indian cricketer Robin Uthappa stated that Samsom will find nothing new in the ignorance, as has been the case in the past.
Is Sanju saying that this is not the first time he has experienced it? As a player, I don’t think it will be the last time he experiences it, but Sanju’s one-day stats have been very amazing. Once more, I believe that with adjustments made to the leadership group or inside the leadership group. According to India Today, Uthappa said, “It has to kind of settle down a little bit and we as fans and supporters of the Indian cricket team have to give that space to kind of settle down as well.”

Thus, I believe Sanju is still in the running, just like any other player. I believe. He will eventually have his chance, but in the meantime, he must seize it to ensure that he puts up strong performances that keep him in the running,” the speaker continued.
BCCI ignores Abhishek and Gaikwad for their tour of Sri Lanka
In addition to Samson, the selection committee has confused a number of fans by leaving out players like Abhishek Sharma and Ruturaj Gaikwad from the Sri Lanka tour. In the second Twenty20 International against Zimbabwe, Abhishek struck a fast century, and Gaikwad, who finished as the series’ third-highest run scorer, was playing at his best all around.
