India's Hanuma Vihari Questions Management's Treatment of Abhishek Sharma Over Sanju Samson

Out-of-favour Indian cricketer Hanuma Vihari has raised eyebrows over the team management's preferential treatment towards Abhishek Sharma, while sidelining Sanju Samson, the hero of India's T20 World Cup triumph. Abhishek's recent string of poor performances has drawn criticism, with Vihari questioning the management's decisions.

Despite leading India to T20 World Cup glory with his exceptional performance, Samson was dropped from the T20I squad for the Zimbabwe series. Vihari pointed out that Samson's match-wiing knocks in the World Cup were overshadowed by Abhishek's inconsistent form, raising concerns over the fairness of the selection process.

Vihari highlighted the disparity in treatment between the two players, citing Abhishek's lackluster performances compared to Samson's proven ability to deliver under pressure. He questioned the rationale behind backing Abhishek despite his poor run of form, while Samson, a consistent performer, was overlooked.

In his analysis, Vihari pointed out Abhishek's meager contributions in recent matches, with only one half-century in his last 10 iings. In contrast, Samson, the Player of the Tournament in the World Cup, showcased his ability to deliver when it mattered most, raising doubts about the selection criteria.

Vihari emphasized the need for consistent and fair treatment of all players, regardless of their reputation or past performances. He questioned the double standards in evaluating players like Abhishek and Samson, urging the management to offer equal opportunities to all deserving candidates.
