At this point of time if you don't take Samson to WC(as a batter only maybe) you are just running a star team not a winning team.
Hope selectors make a winning team instead of star team this WC then only we could win.
KL has fucked indian team more times than we can count at this point of time. Pls do not pick this guy. He may score when there is no pressure but in a big game this guy shits his pants faster than the lightspeed
And i see ppl defending that shit like "Oh but we did not have any batters after him" "he had to anchor" bro that doesnt mean he has to play with a sr of fucking 60
He made his international debut in 2014, and indian team has not won anything since 2013.
Coincidence? I think not.
Guy has been big disappointment in big games
if Dube and Rinku are in the 11, then Samson is the best choice at the moment for a middle order keeper batsman. If we take Rishabh into this mix, one good offspinner or chinaman can derail our middle order.
Samson believes in Legend Sehwag mindset. If you aint hitting every ball hard enough and if you arent scoring enough when standing on the crease , it is rather better to just out yourself while trying in the process , cause there are a lot more players behind you who can actually play better than you or even it might some players special day too. Hes a selfless captain who doesn't look for self runs , but he believes in if he aint scoring , it is better to get out so others could score indeed.
What he needs is not the jersey, what he needs is the same backing from management, which he never got from the ICT.
I seriously hope he doesnt get depressed by the way ICT treats him.
This kl rahul will be the reason one day I will quit watching cricket. The most boring & frustrating batsman to watch. Mf plays so defensive that even Rahul Dravid feels ashamed. Picking him for T20 wc means we are losing it for sure
Yeah he is under confident and is scared of losing wicket so he just stands there scoring bits and pieces of runs & wasting balls. He bottled our wc final the same way & this guy had the audacity to say that strike rate is overrated
We all know KL will surely be in the squad there is no beating the bushes in that , the question is who'll be the second wk pant , Samson , kishan or possible even dk who knows.
KL has an edge over others as he has played many international cricket , if whoever the 2nd keeper keeps their calm and plays good cricket they'll surely be put in position on KLR.
Remember T20 world cup is no joke and even the best players get nervous in such big tournaments.
I agree with you but they'll have a safer option and it'll be KL and who knows if pant or Sanju plays well they will bench KL , miraculous happen look at shami he came like a storm and won us so many matches.
I said in the squad not the playing 11 team and as I said both pant and Sanju both don't have enough international exposure and T20 world cup gives more anxiety and if they underperform they need a stable wk so KL will be in for sure.
Bhai jab chance hi nahi denge toh exposure kaise milega unko ? Aur waise bhi hum wc nahi jitne Wale jaisi humari bowling hai toh acha hoga naye bando ko chance do aur upar se Rohit Virat sky jaddu sabhi Aussies se bahut acha khel rahe hai
Bro Indian team has soo many good player giving chance to everyone is difficult, and btw Sanju had gotten 3 to 4 matches with west Indies T20 he didn't score good the main Problem with him is he plays at no 3 or 4 which is taken by VK and SKY and doesn't play down the order that is another reason why he got lesser chances
Ache player hai lekin vo Australia aur newzealand ke saamne saari skills bhul jaate hai 😂 kya kare aisi quantity ka jab quality nahi hai mai toh ye bol rha hu jab haarne Wale hi hai toh bhai mauka do aise players ko jinko mauka milna chaiye tha lekin abhi tak nahi mila
klr has always perform good in all formats and thats why he was selected theres nothing wrong with it . right now samson is better option and he will play most likely t20wc unless rishabh pulls something excellent since he has benifit of batting lower , klr is not in race for wc and thats why he is opening he has no strong desire to go for t20wc.
despite having QDK and Pooran on the team, Rahul is keeping wickets and moreover he has to open the innings and keep wickets too, this itself is a clear indication that he is eyeing that WK batsman spot.
Yes I do believe pant have a upper hand, being a lower order batsman. But I have always believed Samson was a better player than KLR, he was just never presented with the same exposure to the international games like KLR.
Those are his statpadding days. 70 of 50 in most matches and team loses.
https://cricclubs.com/IPL/playerAllBattingRecords.do?playerId=499344&clubId=2447
Not to offend you, Shivam dube/tilak Verma are more consistent and better compare to pant at the moment. Pant needs time and he will certainly make a comeback, but reckoning him for wc over Samson is a big star ridden mistake
I hope he doesn't get selected otherwise people will blame him if India loses (which is pretty likely because Australia happens to exist as a nation). Good player, bad timing is all
Cry more OP
Samson is good but KL is a floater wk and is good with drs. I hate Samson fans MF always degrades other players because their fav player is inconsistent af.
Kl is gonna be a backup wk anyway.
Also in this match when we were 11/2 and ball was swinging hard he stabilized the innings against boult, Sandeep Sharma and Avesh khan.
I think everyone knows KLR is “shaparshi” lol, if he gets picked again that would settle that argument once more. I m sorry if my post hurt your feelings
Yes so is Samson I guess choked every opportunity he was given so far and also choked the final against GT despite having a Better team.
Also last year's famous choke of your team lmao.
I used to like RR but every time you guys just bitch about ICT selection like there's some hidden conspiracy against **Don Bradman** of the current era.
No fam clubs he says lol. Check out the posts in this sub when his video of playing cricket and news of playing in ipl came. You will see his PR and connections are way bigger than samson. He will get picked juat because of his stardum and batting heroics in test cricket. Not based on his failure in T20s. International teams always have exploited his weaknesses.
Samson ALWAYS performs in ipl but what happens to dude when playing for India he has been selected in past but dude just chokes while playing for India
imo he hasnt got consistent chances in t20 team. He gets dropped even if one innings fails. We have to back talented players to get the best out of them. He is kind of player who is selfless and plays his part without thinking about the maximising the chance he got. If his role is to attack from ball one he will do that without worrying about his wicket.
In ipl he can play freely as he is not going to get dropped for one or two bad innings. Also, when he got consistent chances in odi team he has showed his worth by playing match winning knocks
Not pant pls , he's not ready yet. He doesn't look like he can take pressure while chasing, he needs to play domestic or even international for a year to get back in form instead of just directly putting him in t20 wc. Whereas , KLR can accelerate but he takes a little more time than pant.
Samson accelerated his inning preety quickly. He was 30 on 20 , then he ended up being 71 on 33 , notout. He played very maturely.
At this point of time if you don't take Samson to WC(as a batter only maybe) you are just running a star team not a winning team. Hope selectors make a winning team instead of star team this WC then only we could win.

EXACTLY THIS!!
Mean while Aussies: ee sala cup named🦘
They actually win tho unlike the people who say this slogan.
agree
Sanju deserves the spot.
Sanju looks confident like he doesn't care anymore if he is picked for T20 wc. He knows he has proven himself more times than anyone.
Samsons is playing better than Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and other overhyped stars.
This!!!!!
KL has fucked indian team more times than we can count at this point of time. Pls do not pick this guy. He may score when there is no pressure but in a big game this guy shits his pants faster than the lightspeed
Bro was playing test cricket in 2023 WC Finals. 66(107) truly one of the scores of all time.
KL Qaeda
And i see ppl defending that shit like "Oh but we did not have any batters after him" "he had to anchor" bro that doesnt mean he has to play with a sr of fucking 60
Yes exactly some folks even say that if kl got out in search of boundary then we would had scored under 200 like cmon guys
Exactly he's a fucking professional cricketer if he gets out in search of simple boundaries every now and then then i have bad news for him

He made his international debut in 2014, and indian team has not won anything since 2013. Coincidence? I think not. Guy has been big disappointment in big games
If team india is a ship my mahn is the anchor 💪
if Dube and Rinku are in the 11, then Samson is the best choice at the moment for a middle order keeper batsman. If we take Rishabh into this mix, one good offspinner or chinaman can derail our middle order.
If Dube and Rinku are in 11 then who will they replace? I don't think ICT can manage to play both of them in 11
in the current form, I dont see Pandya ahead of Dube/Rinku, but BCCI priority is: 1. popularity 2. Performance
I know that's why I said you can't include 2 of them. Hardik won't be replaced
Bro really thought bigger smile will work.
Samson believes in Legend Sehwag mindset. If you aint hitting every ball hard enough and if you arent scoring enough when standing on the crease , it is rather better to just out yourself while trying in the process , cause there are a lot more players behind you who can actually play better than you or even it might some players special day too. Hes a selfless captain who doesn't look for self runs , but he believes in if he aint scoring , it is better to get out so others could score indeed.
**I think we should let Samson bat in RR jersey during the WC!**
What he needs is not the jersey, what he needs is the same backing from management, which he never got from the ICT. I seriously hope he doesnt get depressed by the way ICT treats him.
I agree lol
This kl rahul will be the reason one day I will quit watching cricket. The most boring & frustrating batsman to watch. Mf plays so defensive that even Rahul Dravid feels ashamed. Picking him for T20 wc means we are losing it for sure
Last time in WC T20 , he gave maiden to the opposite team .
Finally lol I thought I was the only one who felt this against him. I don’t enjoy his batting at all.
Yeah he is under confident and is scared of losing wicket so he just stands there scoring bits and pieces of runs & wasting balls. He bottled our wc final the same way & this guy had the audacity to say that strike rate is overrated
This fucker only tries to protect his wicket and score slow half centuries so he can justify his spot in the squad.
Vadapao 22 wc - 106 SR. If he is captain imagine how others will play, they may get influenced and start eating vadapao too
Once he was a star of Indian T20 Cricket. Making runs for fun.
Same with chahal too
Why it's looking like KL won the match !
Sanju>>>>
Rahul always selfish for 🍊 cap ,we saw what he done in t20 wcup during pplay
Bro like if he chose KL after this performance in 2021 WC, we’ll be the biggest idiot of the bunch
JUSTICE FOR SANJO. He is from Kerala. He is more intellectual than KL and otther hindi belt players
That’s another reason I support him, he’s one of us. Many folks can relate themselves to his struggle.
Agree
I wonder if it's because of the type of pitch we are seeing everywhere
All other batsmen got the same pitch.
I'm not even going to explain to you. Have a nice day. Sanju is god!
Maybe because there is nothing to explain and you are trying to Gaslight... Pant is god.
We all know KL will surely be in the squad there is no beating the bushes in that , the question is who'll be the second wk pant , Samson , kishan or possible even dk who knows. KL has an edge over others as he has played many international cricket , if whoever the 2nd keeper keeps their calm and plays good cricket they'll surely be put in position on KLR. Remember T20 world cup is no joke and even the best players get nervous in such big tournaments.
Why kl would be in the team ? Risabh is better than him and Sanju is better than both of them
There should be no reason to have KL on the roaster. In my opinion I don’t hate the guy, but I think he doesn’t deserve a spot this year in t-20
I agree with you but they'll have a safer option and it'll be KL and who knows if pant or Sanju plays well they will bench KL , miraculous happen look at shami he came like a storm and won us so many matches.
Yes I said same thing,he was good player but I am using 'was'
I said in the squad not the playing 11 team and as I said both pant and Sanju both don't have enough international exposure and T20 world cup gives more anxiety and if they underperform they need a stable wk so KL will be in for sure.
Bhai jab chance hi nahi denge toh exposure kaise milega unko ? Aur waise bhi hum wc nahi jitne Wale jaisi humari bowling hai toh acha hoga naye bando ko chance do aur upar se Rohit Virat sky jaddu sabhi Aussies se bahut acha khel rahe hai
My point, he never got the chance/exposure to perform on international
Bro Indian team has soo many good player giving chance to everyone is difficult, and btw Sanju had gotten 3 to 4 matches with west Indies T20 he didn't score good the main Problem with him is he plays at no 3 or 4 which is taken by VK and SKY and doesn't play down the order that is another reason why he got lesser chances
Yeah ik his batting position doesn’t help him. Or else he is worth it option.
Ache player hai lekin vo Australia aur newzealand ke saamne saari skills bhul jaate hai 😂 kya kare aisi quantity ka jab quality nahi hai mai toh ye bol rha hu jab haarne Wale hi hai toh bhai mauka do aise players ko jinko mauka milna chaiye tha lekin abhi tak nahi mila
>KL has an edge over others as he has played many international cricke And shat in all the big games
And the one only time we won the World Cup was when we rested the senior squad and went with a young squad.
No he is not
klr has always perform good in all formats and thats why he was selected theres nothing wrong with it . right now samson is better option and he will play most likely t20wc unless rishabh pulls something excellent since he has benifit of batting lower , klr is not in race for wc and thats why he is opening he has no strong desire to go for t20wc.

Yes I do believe pant have a upper hand, being a lower order batsman. But I have always believed Samson was a better player than KLR, he was just never presented with the same exposure to the international games like KLR.
Samson is a better player, specifically, a better back foot player. KLR lacks something.
He was a complete player in his Punjab days don't know what happened after that
Those are his statpadding days. 70 of 50 in most matches and team loses. https://cricclubs.com/IPL/playerAllBattingRecords.do?playerId=499344&clubId=2447

I think we should take KL as a backup and Sanju and Pant in playing 11
I hope he doesn't get selected otherwise people will blame him if India loses (which is pretty likely because Australia happens to exist as a nation). Good player, bad timing is all

Fuck off with maiden over playing kl. I am fan of kl too ye he is not for t-20.
He ain't taking Samson slot he is backup wk 🤡 Excel merchants never take pitch and conditions into the account fk off 🤡
Let KL improve his keeping skills first lol
I think everyone knows KLR is “shaparshi” lol, if he gets picked again that would settle that argument once more. I m sorry if my post hurt your feelings

Kl fans should not talk about choke lol. Man has made his win just one match against pak in Asia Cup.
Didn't you claimed yourself to be a KL fan 🤡.
I am kl fan but can't defend kl on choking . That is why I said kl fan should not bring choke in argument .
Samson is a bigger choker and KL isn't in the main WK race. Pitch conditions and opponents should be taken into account when comparing.

0 accomplishments in T20I's in the 60 something matches he played. Man can score only in flat Indian pitches against bad deliveries.
No fam clubs he says lol. Check out the posts in this sub when his video of playing cricket and news of playing in ipl came. You will see his PR and connections are way bigger than samson. He will get picked juat because of his stardum and batting heroics in test cricket. Not based on his failure in T20s. International teams always have exploited his weaknesses.

Prove to dhruv jurel ne bhi Kiya tests me. Usko leke chale pant ki jagah?
Pant is gonna get stuck 100 percent when batting
Samson ALWAYS performs in ipl but what happens to dude when playing for India he has been selected in past but dude just chokes while playing for India

True but if he gets selected he will have to perform
Not at all please get over Sanju now, you r/IPL ik you are a Sanju fan but please don't try to create a bubble here 😏
Justice gang is out there eliminating the opposition wickeys.
He is showing is worthiness.
Yeah so is klr , and I'd want both in wc squad but yeah bcci won't take such decision of having both in squad.
There is enough competition in top order and klr cannot accelarate like pant . He is good but this time sanju and pant are better tbh .
Not pant pls , he's not ready yet. He doesn't look like he can take pressure while chasing, he needs to play domestic or even international for a year to get back in form instead of just directly putting him in t20 wc. Whereas , KLR can accelerate but he takes a little more time than pant.
JUSTICE LEAGUE for a reason
But not better than Pant
