'Sanju Always Plays For The Team', Says Father Viswanath After Son's Selection In T20 WC Squad

By IANS News April 30, 2024 • 18:30 PM View: 641

The Senior Selection Committee: The Senior Selection Committee of the BCCI on Tuesday named a 15-member India squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup to be played in the West Indies and the US from June 2-29.

In the battle for the second wicket-keeper's slot, Kerala's Sanju Samson has edged out K.L. Rahul as Rishabh Pant makes a comeback to the national team after a long injury lay-off following his horrific car accident in December 2022.

The selection of Sanju, currently leading table-toppers Rajasthan Royals from the front in the Indian Premier League (IPL), has left his father elated.
