Both Gill and Samson are included in the Asia Cup team: India recently announced a 15-member team for the Asia Cup to be held next month, in which Gill was also given a chance. Gill was out of the T20 team for some time and in his absence, Samson was coming in for opening. Now that both are included in the team, it will be interesting to see how the team management prepares the combination of the playing-11.

Actually, with Shubman Gill's return to the T20 team, it is considered difficult for Sanju Samson to make a place in the playing 11. Gill can be seen opening with Abhishek, while Jitesh Sharma has been included in the 15-member squad as a wicketkeeper. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see whom captain Suryakumar Yadav gives a chance and whom he leaves out.
