Ind vs Eng Second Test, PrimeNewsly: Mumbai's right-handed batsman Sarfaraz Khan had scored consistently in domestic cricket in the last 3-4 years but his performance for India A was often not up to the mark, due to which he could not be selected. Now Sarfaraz also batted strongly for India A and the result has come in the form of selection.
Sweating it out on the cricket field for hours, days and months, leaving everyone behind in the competition, being ignored time and again and still clamouring for a comeback. Mumbai's young cricketer Sarfaraz Khan has done it all in the last few years and finally his efforts, hard work and fighting spirit have been rewarded. Sarfaraz Ahmed has been called up to the Indian team for the first time. Ahead of the second Test between India and England, the selection committee has added Sarfaraz to the Indian squad. Sarfaraz has already scored 14 centuries and nearly 4 thousand runs at the first-class level before getting a call from Team India.
The first Test between India and England ended on January 28 in Hyderabad. India lost the match by four runs. The very next day after the defeat, Team India got some more bad news. Ravindra Jadeja and KL Rahul have been ruled out of the series due to injuries. The second Test will be played in Visakhapatnam from February 2. While Team India suffered losses due to the injury of these two, 3 players got the benefit. The selection committee included Sarfaraz Khan, Washington Sundar and Saurabh Kumar in the squad.
Finally, this century came in handy, now left-arm spinner Saurabh Kumar and spin-allrounder Sundar have already come to Team India. Sundar has also played for Team India in all three formats but Sarfaraz Khan never got a chance before. The Mumbai batsman had consistently rained runs in domestic cricket but was still getting overlooked. This had raised many questions. One of the major reasons was his poor performance for India A, but just before the Hyderabad Test, Sarfaraz responded by scoring a brilliant 161 for India A against England Lions and finally got a call from Team India.
In the 2022-23 Ranji Trophy, Sarfaraz scored 556 runs in six matches. Overall, Sarfaraz has scored runs consistently in his first-class career. Sarfaraz, who has played 45 matches so far, has a total of 3912 runs with the bat, in which he has an average of 69.85. Not only this, these runs have also come at a fast strike rate of 70. Sarfaraz has scored 14 centuries and 11 half-centuries and 301 (not out) is his highest score. Although, will he get a chance to make his debut in the second Test? it looks difficult at the moment as Rajat Patidar is also in line apart from him.
