Road To 2027 World Cup: Samson's Red-hot Form Puts Pant’s ODI Spot Under Serious Threat
T20 World Cup: Sanju Samson’s stunning form in the white-ball games has once again sparked a major selection debate in Indian cricket. After impressive performances during the T20 World Cup earlier this year, the stylish wicketkeeper-batter has carried that momentum into the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026, forcing fans and experts alike to ask one big question — should he now replace Rishabh Pant in India’s ODI setup?
While Pant continues to search for rhythm, Samson has been in blistering touch.
Pant has managed 147 runs in seven matches this season, averaging 24.50 with a strike rate of 132.43. His best score remains 68 against Hyderabad, but overall consistency has been missing.
