Sanju Samson has not been included in the Indian squad for the T20 World Cup. Many fans protested this decision of BCCI. Sanju Samson became the talk of the town after posting their concerns on social media. It was then that he was announced as the captain of the India ‘A’ team. In particular, his statement that not being included in the T20 World Cup squad is not a concern has gained a lot of attention among fans.
