New Delhi: Former Indian cricketer Kapil Dev has criticized Sanju Samson’s inconsistent performance in the Twenty20 series against South Africa. Kapil said that instability is the biggest challenge facing Sanju. Kapil pointed out that Sanju, who has been performing well in one or two games, is not doing anything in the subsequent games. While Wriddhiman Saha is currently the best wicket-keeper in India, Kapil said that as a batsman, Sanju, Karthik, Rishabh Pant and Ishant Kishan are all better than Saha.
Sanju, who captained the Rajasthan Royals in the 15th season of the Indian Premier League, led the team to the final. Sanju has scored 458 runs throughout the season. However, Sanju’s omission from the series against South Africa drew criticism. Former coach Ravi Shastri has publicly demanded that Sanju be included in the Twenty20 World Cup in Australia.
” Sanju Samson really disappointed me. He is a talented player. Sanju will break down in one or two games. Then there will be no movement. This is the case with any of the current wicket-keepers in the Indian team. When asked who is the best batsman in the team, they are all capable of winning the team when they are in form ‘- Kapil pointed out.
“In the case of Wriddhiman Saha, he is a better wicket-keeper than Sanju Samson, Dinesh Karthik, Rishabh Pant and Ishant Kishan. But in terms of batting, these four are better than Saha, ”said Kapil.
Kapil said Dinesh Karthik was the best wicket-keeper to be considered for the Twenty20 World Cup in terms of consistency. Kapil also said that Ishant Kishan’s poor performance was due to the pressure on him to get a big reward in the 2022 IPL star auction.
“In terms of consistency, Dinesh Karthik is ahead of everyone else. My guess is that Ishan Kishan’s humility was stressful. This may be due to the high amount received in the IPL star auction. It is difficult to say for sure as I have never received such a high amount, ”said Kapil.
“Rishabh is still more likely than Karthik to make the Twenty20 team. But it was a big thing for Karthik to remind the selectors that he was not a player to be ignored. The ball is a young player who can play even longer. Karthik is the most experienced person. Karthik is a player who started his career before Dhoni and is still going strong, ”said Kapil.
