Simple random sampling ensures that every member of the population has an equal chance of being selected, which is the criteria specified in the question. Systematic sampling is not truly random as it involves selecting every nth element after a random starting point. Stratified random sampling involves dividing the population into subgroups and sampling from each subgroup, which isn't required or specified in the question. Cluster sampling involves dividing the population into clusters and selecting only some clusters for sampling, which again doesn't meet the criteria specified in the question.
