Mumbai: Sanju Samson was dropped from the Indian team for the ODI World Cup. Instead, Suryakumar Yadav, who has a poor record in ODIs, has been brought into the team. But Surya, who found form in the ODI series against Australia, justified his inclusion. KL Rahul and Ishan Kishan are the wicket keepers in the team. With this, Sanju did not get a chance. Moreover, Sanju was also not included in the Indian team for the Asian Games. The player faced severe neglect from the team management.
Former wicket keeper Saba Karim is clarifying the reason for excluding Sanju from the World Cup – Asian Games team. As he explains… “If KL Rahul doesn’t recover from his injury, India had expected to include Sanju in the World Cup team. But with KL Rahul regaining fitness, Sanju had to be dropped. Sanju was also not included in the squad for the Asian Games as he was part of the senior team’s plans. I believe the team management must have informed Sanju why it was not considered. It is unfortunate that Sanju was left out. Sanju is a very talented actor. He has a lot of potential and I hope to see Sanju back in the Indian team in the future,” said Saba Karim.
