Chahal, Patel Urge Gambhir to Drop Sanju Samson for Ishan Kishan in T20Is
- •Yuzvendra Chahal and Parthiv Patel advocate for Sanju Samson's removal from the T20I playing XI.
- •They suggest replacing Samson with Ishan Kishan due to Samson's recent low scores (16, 10, 0, 24) against New Zealand.
- •Patel emphasizes playing Kishan as the main wicketkeeper-batter in the final T20I and warm-up matches for T20 World Cup 2026 preparation.
- •Chahal states that after 10-12 years of international cricket, pressure is not an excuse for Samson's consistent failures.
- •The experts believe a change is imminent with the T20 World Cup 2026 approaching, potentially involving Shreyas Iyer or Tilak Varma if fit.
Why It Matters: Cricket experts Chahal and Patel strongly recommend dropping Sanju Samson for Ishan Kishan in T20Is.
