Rajasthan Royals` captain Sanju Samson has made his case to be India`s first-choice wicketkeeper, says the team`s director of cricket Kumar Sangakkara. The other wicket-keeper named in the Indian squad is Delhi Capitals skipper Rishabh Pant who has impressed with his glove work in the ongoing IPL 2024.

Samson smashed 86 off 46 balls on Tuesday but the knock went in vain, with the Capitals winning by 20 runs at home. He is having a great run with 471 runs in 11 matches. The recent 86-run knock was his fifth half-century in the IPL 2024.
