India head coach Gautam Gambhir has confirmed that Sanju Samson was given details regarding his position after being dropped from the starting lineup, while keeping the door open for the wicketkeeper-batter to return during the active T20I series against England.

Even though Samson was left out of the travelling squad for the next tour of Zimbabwe, Gambhir insisted that the veteran cricketer is still under consideration for the remainder of the five-match English series, where the touring Indian team currently trails 0-2 following two defeats and a rain-curtailed match.
