Former Indian cricket team all-rounder Irfan Pathan was left disappointed after Sanju Samson did not feature in India's squad for the upcoming ODI series against Australia. Samson was a back-up member of the squad for Asia Cup 2023 but he came back before the final and he was not included in the squad for the Cricket World Cup 2023. Pathan took to social media to post about the development and said that he would have been disappointed if he was in Samson's position. "If I'm in place of Sanju Samson right now I will be very disappointed...," Irfan posted on X (formerly called Twitter).
