IND vs SL LIVE: After spending 12 matches on BENCH, Rahul Tripathi eyes TURNAROUND in 2023, SRH star competes with Sanju Samson in SriLanka series – Check out
Snubbed and dropped and benched, Sanju Samson and Rahul Tripathi are on the same boat when it comes to their luck in Team India. But both are too good to ignore. Samson has proven that he is flexible and can do the job at any number.
Team India are also looking at Samson and Hardik as two specialist finishers. Considering that, he could edge Tripathi. But for the SRH star, he has already spent 12 matches for India on the bench.
Tripathi received his maiden T20I call up against Ireland earlier this year, but he did not made his debut in that series. With Virat Kohli also rested in the upcoming series against Sri Lanka, Tripathi can be an ideal candidate to bat at the number three position.
Speaking about his numbers in IPL, the 31-year-old has played 76 matches and has amassed 1798 runs at an astounding strike rate of 140. Tripathi also has ten fifties to his name and looks comfortable against both spin and pace bowling.
