5 players who missed out on India's squad for the tri series against Sri Lanka and Bangladesh

#3 Sanju Samson

With MS Dhoni being rested, one would have thought that 23-year-old Sanju Samson would be given a chance to shine. However, the selectors decided to go with Dinesh Karthik and Rishabh Pant instead.

Samson has consistently been performing well at the domestic level, in the Ranji Trophy and in the Indian Premier League as well.

However, he has just been given one chance with the national side in a T20I against Zimbabwe in 2015.

He was the top-scorer for Kerala in the Ranji Trophy with 677 runs to his name in 12 innings. He will hope for the selectors to give him a chance within the next few months.
