India’s 2023 Asia Cup squad is in doubt. KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer, who are returning from injury, have been included in the India squad. However, India’s chief selector Ajit Agarkar said that KL Rahul has another injury.
In this situation, questions also arise as to why Rahul was included in the squad again. Everyone is questioning India’s decision to include Rahul in the main squad and omit Sanju Samson as Rahul will not play in India’s first matches of the tournament. Former Pakistan spinner Danish Kanaria has now come forward against this.
Kanaria says that India should have kept KL Rahul as a reserve player in case of injury. “Rahul has not performed so well in Test cricket. That is why Rahul lost his place in the Test. After that, Rahul struggled to find runs in the IPL as well.
Meanwhile, he got injured and is now coming back to the team. This is totally unfair. If India gives Rahul another chance like this, Sanju Samson should also be included in the squad. Rahul was supposed to line up as a reserve player in the squad. “Perhaps because Rahul has become such a big player, India is finding it difficult to replace him,” says Kanaria.
Kanaria thinks that it is unlikely that Sanju Samson will get a chance to play in the Asia Cup. “Sanju will have to carry the drinks again. Many, including Sanju fans, will consider this unfair. However, if Sanju doesn’t get a chance in the team, I wouldn’t consider it a huge injustice. Because he got many opportunities. Sanju could not take many opportunities with open arms. If you want to stay in the team, you have to consistently perform well.”- adds Kanaria.
After a long break, India gave Sanju Samson opportunities in the ODI series against West Indies. Although he could not bat in the first ODI, Sanju got a chance in the second ODI. Sanju scored 9 runs in the match. Later, Sanju was able to perform well by scoring 51 runs in the third ODI. However, Sanju failed in the Twenty20 series against West Indies.
