Netizens slam BCCI for excluding Sanju from ODI squad vs Australia
Fans were hoping Sanju would be included in the Indian ODI squad for the upcoming series against Australia, but he was not chosen. Instead, young sensation Ishan Kishan will serve as the wicketkeeper in the three-match ODI series starting March 17.

Sanju is definitely the better quality player when compared to Ishan Kishan. Look at what happened when Ishan and Sanju played the same conditions. One played defensive, selfish innings, the other tried to save the match. #SanjuSamson #IshanKishan #KLRahul pic.twitter.com/NZnR4UubIx

Release him to play foreign leagues or even ask him to shift to some other country to pursue international cricket.
