Samson was called for the three-match T20I series against Bangladesh after a string of impressive performances in the domestic circuit including a double ton in the Vijay Hazare Trophy.
Throughout the Bangladesh T20I series, Rishabh Pant struggled to score runs and did not look comfortable behind the stumps too. He ended up scoring 33 runs in two outings.
Recently Pant was released from the Test squad so that the latter can participate in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
India play three T20Is and as many ODIs against West Indies. The first T20I will be played on December 6 in Hyderabad.
