Sanju Samson might need made his worldwide debut method again in 2015, however he has not succeeded in cementing his place within the Indian group on account of inconsistent performances and cut-throat competitors. Commenting on his newest failure, former Pakistani spinner Danish Kaneria mentioned that he wasted an exquisite alternative of impressing the selectors.

The Kerala cricketer went again to the pavilion for simply 12 runs within the first One Day Worldwide on the Port of Spain, Trinidad. After being given out lbw off a supply from Romario Shepherd, he challenged the choice however it was of no use because the umpire’s name got here into play.

Since his worldwide debut in 2015, Samson has solely managed to play 14 T20Is and two One Day Internationals scoring 251 and 58 runs respectively. Whereas it supposedly is perhaps a bit too late for him to make the minimize to the Indian squad for the T20 World Cup in Australia this yr, he can be eyeing subsequent yr’s ODI World Cup on dwelling soil by showcasing constant performances within the 50-overs format from right here on.

Samson bought one other probability however he didn’t look particular: Danish Kaneria

“Samson bought one other probability however he didn’t look particular. He appeared uninteresting earlier than Romario Shepherd bought him out. However as soon as once more, I’ll speak about Hooda. Why did he bat down the order? Shreyas and Suryakumar are okay at No. 2 and three spots respectively, however Hooda ought to have come forward of Samson. India pushed Samson up the order the identical method as Rishabh Pant. However Samson ain’t Pant. His batting is totally totally different,” mentioned Kaneria on his YouTube channel.

Samson is without doubt one of the wicketkeepers for this sequence with common stumper Rishabh Pant rested as part of his workload administration. In the meantime, he would now be hoping to make amends within the second recreation on Sunday, July 24.
