Opportunity gained, Opportunity wasted! That has been the case with Sanju Samson. The keeper batter got his chance to shine in the IND vs SL 2nd T20I but dismissed for a golden duck. And now with the India Cricket Team having won the series, it remains to be seen if Sanju gets yet another chance.
While the generic notion claims that he should be dropped, but there is a small chance which can see him play in the IND vs SL 3rd T20I. Shubman Gill’s injury can work as a blessing in disguise for the Rajasthan Royals skipper. It remains to be seen if the India vice captain has recovered from his neck injury and be fit for the today’s clash.

Position unclear for Sanju Samson
One of the most pertinent question still continues – What is the perfect position for Sanju Samson. In his 25 T20I matches, Samson has played in 7 different positions. In IPL 2024, he promoted himself up the order to bat at 3. Owing to his good form, he was selected to be a part of the India squad for T20 World Cup.
Despite making the 15-member cut, Samson didn’t feature in any T20 World Cup matches. He was used as an opener in the only warm-up match against Bangladesh where he scored just 1 run from 6 balls.
And with the limited number of chances he has got, Samson hasn’t been able to make his mark. Now that the series is done and dusted, Gautam Gambhir might be tempted to try out his bench strength. This can see Samson getting benched. On the flip side, he might get another chance to prove his worth.
