Bizarre to drop Sanju Samson but great to see Vaibhav Sooryavanshi debut: Sanjay Manjrekar

Former batter Sanjay Manjrekar has labelled India's decision to drop Sanju Samson for the second T20 against England as izarre. While praising 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's historic debut, Manjrekar questioned Samson's exclusion, suggesting both could have been accommodated. Samson, a T20 World Cup star, was replaced by Sooryavanshi, who impressed in the IPL. India lost the match, trailing the series 0-1.
