The wicketkeeper-batter first lost his place in India's playing XI during the ongoing five-match T20I series in England after three low scores and has now also missed selection for the three-match series against Zimbabwe later this month.
There has been strong noise that Sanju Samson has been dropped from India’s T20I side because of his poor form with the bat, but Ravichandran Ashwin feels the bigger issue is whether all players are getting the same level of support from the team management.
Ravichandran Ashwin told Vimal Kumar on his YouTube channel: “What did they say to give Sai Sudarshan a long rope in the Test match? They said that it's wrong to judge a player in four innings. So, they wanted to give Sai Sudarshan a long rope. Amazing. It's not even been a month. Where did Sanju Samson fall?”
Ravichandran Ashwin warns against different rules for different players
He added, “See, you can't treat every player equally. But at least you gave Sai four chances. You can give Sanju three chances or two chances. Sometimes it will change. It won't always be even. But there must be some sort of balance. If different players are treated differently, it could increase insecurity within the team. And I am hoping this insecurity really doesn't spread through the team.”

Gautam Gambhir gives Sanju Samson clarity after Zimbabwe tour snub
Well, Samson's recent performances have certainly not been impressive. However, senior BCCI officials have made it clear that Samson has not been dropped from India's long-term plans. Since the Zimbabwe tour is being treated as a chance to test the team's bench strength, the selectors decided to hand a maiden call-up to Prabhsimran Singh after his impressive IPL 2026 campaign.
The Kerala star is still believed to be an important part of India's white-ball plans and is expected to travel with the team to Japan for the Asian Games 2026.
