Ex-India Captain Calls For Sanju Samson's Drop: 'Ishan Kishan More Devastating'
- •Former India captain K Srikkanth suggests dropping Sanju Samson from the T20I squad due to poor form.
- •Srikkanth believes Ishan Kishan is a 'more devastating' player, citing his recent scores of 76 (32) and 28 (13) against New Zealand.
- •Samson managed only 16 runs in three matches, showing inconsistency and desperation, according to Srikkanth.
- •Kishan's excellent form makes his position secure, while Samson's up-and-down performance over the last 1.5 years is a concern.
- •With Tilak Varma's impending return, Srikkanth predicts Samson will be the one to miss out, given Kishan's dual role as keeper-batter.
Why It Matters: K Srikkanth advocates for Sanju Samson's removal from the T20I team, favoring Ishan Kishan's explosive form.
