‘Destroyed by egos of…’, Shashi Tharoor accuses KCA for Samson CT snub

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor has blamed the Kerala Cricket Association (KCA) after Sanju Samson was excluded from India’s team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Samson was unfortunately excluded from the team as the selectors chose Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul as the two wicketkeeper batters in the 15-member squad.

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor has blamed the Kerala Cricket Association (KCA) after Sanju Samson was excluded from India’s team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Samson was unfortunately excluded from the team as the selectors chose Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul as the two wicketkeeper batters in the 15-member squad.

After being overlooked by team India, Tharoor accused the KCA of excluding him from the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25 squad, asserting that this decision caused him to lose his place on the Indian team.

Tharoor noted that Samson had previously notified KCA regarding his inability to participate in the training camp for both the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy.

However, Tharoor asserted that the association ultimately chose to exclude him and criticized the officials for ruining Samson’s career.

“The sorry saga of the Kerala Cricket Association and Sanju Samson — the player wrote to KCA, in advance, regretting his inability to attend a training camp between the SMA and the Vijay Hazare Trophy tournaments, and was promptly dropped from the squad — has now resulted in Sanju’s exclusion from the Indian team. A batsman who has a highest score of 212* in the Hazare, who averages 56.66 in ODIs for India (including a century in his last outing, against South Africa) is having his career destroyed by the egos of cricket administrators. Doesn’t it bother the KCA bosses that by leaving Sanju out, they ensured Kerala didn’t even reach the quarter-finals of the Hazare? Where does this leave him?,” posted Samson on his X account.

Sanju Samson’s sensational ODI Career

Samson has been in remarkable form recently, having achieved three centuries in his past five T20I innings. He also scored a century in his most recent ODI match against South Africa in December 2023. The 30-year-old has an ODI cricket average of 56.66 after 14 innings, accumulating 510 runs with a strike rate of 99.60. He has recorded one hundred and three half-centuries in his career to date.

POWER CORRIDORS

Former Vice President Venkaiah Naidu commended Power Corridors as a commendable news magazine, affirming that it not only upholds Media Dharma but also fulfills its societal obligations. Power Corridors, as its name implies, delves into realpolitik—examining the essence of influential circles, unraveling the intricacies of political maneuvers, and exploring the pulse of the state’s affairs. However, it transcends mere power dynamics, encompassing a broader spectrum of issues beyond the confines of Delhi’s elite circles.

For PC, which is published by the Interactive Forum on Indian Economy, not only highlights the issues of the day but also throws up what ought to be the subjects that the country should be debating about. It reports about the plans, strategies, and agendas of politicians and others; it also sets the agenda for the nation.
