Sanju Samson has been selected for the Asia Cup 2025, but there is a great question sign to his fight position. With Shubman Gill doing a comeback and the delivery of the Vice-Cape of the T20i team of India, it is still a mystery that will be the openers.
Samson, a consistent part of India’s T20i configuration under Gautam Gambhir, is now facing the challenge of retaining his position as a opener after Shubman Gill’s return to configuration. During the last year, Samson has opened with Abhishek Sharma in the format.
