Sanju Samson vs Rishabh Pant : Team India's former veteran batsman Gautam Gambhir has given a big response regarding the playing eleven of the Indian team for the T20 World Cup 2024. He has said that he will not select Sanju Samson in the playing eleven of the Indian team and will give place to Rishabh Pant. Gautam Gambhir has given two big reasons behind why he would prefer Pant instead of Samson.

Both Sanju Samson and Rishabh Pant have been selected in India's team for the T20 World Cup. The performance of both the players was very good in IPL 2024 and that is why they got a place in the team. KL Rahul was not included. However, now the big question before the management will be that who should be included in the playing eleven, because both are very good players.

We need wicketkeeper batsman in middle order – Gautam Gambhir

a large online portal During a special conversation with Gautam Gambhir, he reacted about Sanju Samson and Rishabh Pant. He said, both the players have the same quality. Sanju Samson has tremendous quality and even Rishabh Pant also has great quality. If I have to choose, I would probably choose Rishabh Pant because he is a natural middle order batsman. If you see Sanju Samson, he has batted at number 3 in IPL. According to me, Rishabh Pant has batted at fifth, sixth and seventh position. Looking at the combination of Team India, we want a lower order wicketkeeper batsman and not a top order batsman. So I will start with Rishabh Pant. Apart from this, he is also a left-handed batsman in the middle order, which gives you a left-right combination.

Let us tell you that Team India has already been announced for the T20 World Cup. Many players have got a place in the team and some players have not been included. Players like Shubhman Gill and Rinku Singh have been kept in reserve. However, Shivam Dubey has definitely been successful in making a place in the main team.
