I would have gone for Samson instead of Rishabh Pant: Dinesh Kaneria

Former Pakistani cricketer Dinesh Kaneria has opened up about India’s World Cup squad. He shares his thoughts on the squad picked up by BCCI and selectors ahead of the T20 World Cup. The former Pakistani cricketer feels it was a wrong decision made by the selectors for not picking up Sanju Samson in the squad.

Dinesh thinks Sanju Samson could have given the chance as he looks good for the Australian conditions. Sanju Samson has also done well for India whenever he has been given chances. Dinesh Kaneria has also made a statement where he said he would have picked Sanju Samson instead of wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant. Rishabh Pant is in a good run of form but not in T20Is and thus he feels Rishabh Pant shouldn’t have been selected.

“It is a bit unfair for someone like Sanju Samson. He should have been considered for the T20 World Cup squad. What has he done wrong to not find a place? He has also been ignored for India’s home series against Australia and South Africa. I would have gone for Samson instead of Rishabh Pant,” Kaneria said on his official YouTube channel.
