After IPL 2024, T-20 World Cup is going to start in West Indies and USA. The Indian team has been announced for this mega tournament and Rishabh Pant and Sanju Samson have been selected as wicketkeepers. Now it has become a matter of debate that which of these two will get priority? Many veterans have also given their opinion on this.
In this episode, former Indian off-spinner Harbhajan has given his reaction. Former cricketer Harbhajan Singh wants Sanju Samson to be selected before Rishabh Pant in the Indian team for the T20 World Cup. He said that Samson has been brilliant throughout the season and should be rewarded for his consistency.
Let us tell you that under the leadership of Sanju Samson, Rajasthan Royals has reached the playoffs of IPL 2024. Rajasthan dominated throughout the tournament, but the team’s performance declined in the final. It stood third in the points table after the league stage. Now they will face RCB in the eliminator on Wednesday, May 22.
I want Samson to get a chance- Harbhajan Singh
Earlier, Harbhajan Singh said, Rishabh Pant played well in IPL. He has come out of his injuries. He looked fit, batted well and kept wickets well. But Sanju has played really well. I want them to get a chance. He is continuously performing well. He is scoring 60 and 70 runs and is no longer the old Sanju who just scores 30 and 40 runs, but don’t be in a hurry to bring Pant back, I hope he does something special for India.
The former spinner finally said that, I am sure we will win against Pakistan, our track record against them is very good and our team is also better. Let us tell you that the Indian team will start its campaign in the T-20 World Cup with the match to be played against Ireland on June 5.
