NEW DELHI: Sanju Samson, Kerala’s cricketing gem, has often been the talk of the town for his dazzling performances. He has a loyal following and is regarded as one of the biggest stars in Indian cricket because of his ability to perform well under pressure, particularly in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and in limited-overs forms for India. But many are baffled by the Kerala Cricket Association’s (KCA) recent decision to leave him out of their roster for important forthcoming competitions.
Samson has been largely considered a talent with enormous potential because of his continuous outstanding performances for the Rajasthan Royals. He is a remarkable talent in both the domestic and international cricket fields because of his aggressive batting style and keen wicket keeping abilities, his recent form in the international level in the shortest format of the game also highlights how much he has grown as a player.

Given his years of elite expertise, both fans and experts are deeply troubled by his absence from the KCA squad. It’s crucial to remember that many people had expected Samson to be included in the Kerala team despite his obvious potential. Cricket commentators and supporters believed that his background with the national team and IPL would ensure his spot in the squad.
However, the KCA’s decision to overlook him for the upcoming tournaments has left questions lingering about the selection process. Is this the right decision for Kerala cricket? The exclusion of a player like Samson, whose performances on the big stage have been consistently commendable, could impact the morale of not just the player, but also the cricketing culture in the state.
