"Don't see Sanju Samson as back-up opener for ICC CWC 2027": Wasim Jaffer

Wasim Jaffer does not see Sanju Samson as a backup opener for the 2027 Cricket World Cup. He cited consistency issues as a primary concern for Samson in the ODI format. Jaffer believes Samson should focus solely on T20 international cricket opportunities. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sai Sudharsan are identified as better-suited ODI opening candidates. Shubman Gill and Ruturaj Gaikwad also fit the required mould for 50-over cricket.
