Team India's wicketkeeper batsman Sanju Samson is such a player who is consistently performing well from IPL to domestic cricket and his performance for Team India has also been excellent. However, despite this, he is repeatedly in and out of the team.

Sanju has performed brilliantly for India for some time now, but despite this, he was not given a chance in the first match of the ongoing T20 series against Sri Lanka. He was given a chance in the second match when Shubman Gill was out due to injury.

7 captains dropped Sanju

If we talk about Sanju Samson, he has been dropped by 7 captains since his debut. The first name in this series is MS Dhoni and this player made his debut under Dhoni's captaincy and after that Dhoni dropped him. Samson was also dropped under Virat Kohli's captaincy. Apart from this, when Rohit Sharma became the captain of Team India, he also showed Sanju the way out.

Apart from Rohit, Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul also captained Team India during this period and he was dropped under the captaincy of both of them. Apart from this, when Hardik Pandya captained India, Sanju (Sanju Samson) was also dropped from the team and now Suryakumar Yadav has become the T20 captain and Samson had to sit out under his captaincy too.

Sanju Samson got out on zero against Sri Lanka
