Sanju Samson is such a player whom every team in the world would like to have in their playing eleven. Samson's batting is so amazing that if he stays at the crease then it is possible that the opposing team will dominate. But you will be surprised to know that the Kerala team does not want to keep this player in the squad leave alone its playing eleven. This is the reason why Sanju Samson is not playing Vijay Hazare Trophy. The big and shocking news on Sanju Samson is that Kerala Cricket Association refused to take him in the team. On one hand, while other players of Team India are playing Vijay Hazare Trophy for T20, ODI series and Champions Trophy against England, on the other hand, Sanju Samson was not given a chance in this tournament.

Dispute between Samson and Kerala Cricket

If media reports are to be believed, Sanju Samson was ready to play in Vijay Hazare Trophy. He had also sent a mail of his availability to the Kerala Cricket Association but despite this he was not selected in the team. Kerala Cricket Association earlier gave a statement that to play in Vijay Hazare, it was necessary to join the team camp which Sanju Samson missed but now KCA has given another reason for not giving Samson a chance. Kerala Cricket Association says that it wanted to give a chance to young players in Vijay Hazare Trophy.

It's been more than a month since Samson played

Sanju Samson played his last professional match on December 3, 2024. More than a month has passed and this player has not yet entered the field. 14 days have passed since the start of the year 2025 but Samson has not played a single match yet. By the way, Sanju Samson has got a place in Team India for the five-match T20 series against England. Samson has performed amazingly in T20 format. Last year, Samson had scored two centuries in the four-match T20 series held on the South Africa tour. He scored centuries in Durban and Johannesburg. Samson's form is good but if he had got a chance to play in Vijay Hazare before the T20 series against England, his form could have been better but his dispute with KCA did not allow this to happen.
