Former Sri Lanka: Former Sri Lanka cricketer Kumar Sangakkara believes Sanju Samson can thrive at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup if he wins the race to be India's first-choice wicket-keeper.

Samson, who is being coached by Sangakkara, has been in excellent form with the Rajasthan Royals the IPL 2024. In 11 games, the right-hander has amassed an incredible 471 runs while picking up seven dismissals in his wicket-keeper role and has led the team to eight victories in 11 games as a captain.

Samson will compete against the returning Rishabh Pant to be the wicketkeeper for the 20-over showcase in the USA and the West Indies as India selected two specialist keepers in their 15-player team for the T20 World Cup, which takes place next month.
