Sanju Samson has become a constant talking point in Indian cricket. He performs, people discuss him. He fails, people discuss him again. His talent has never been the real question. The question is how long that talent can justify repeated…
Siddhant Tripathi of CricInformer argues that India's persistent selection of Sanju Samson hurts the national team and limits opportunities for young batter Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. Despite scoring an opening fifty against New Zealand, Samson suffered four consecutive failures when batting conditions became challenging, repeating a trend of struggling on surfaces that offer movement or bounce.
Tripathi contends that Sooryavanshi deserves a sustained opportunity, noting his strong performances in difficult conditions during tours of Zimbabwe and New Zealand. The writer asserts that team management must either give Sooryavanshi regular international game time or release him to play domestic cricket rather than keeping him on the bench.
