Team India is currently playing in Rajkot in the third test match of the series in the ongoing five-match test series against England. However, one of the most talked-about things during the test match was team India’s middle-order batter, Sarfraz Khan, making his debut for team India in the test format of the game.
Sarfraz Khan made his international debut in the presence of one of the biggest inspirations of his life, his father, Naushad Khan, who made all the sacrifices to see his son play at the highest level for the country.
As soon as Sarfraz Khan made his international debut, industrialist Anand Mahendra gifted him with a brand new Mahendra Thar. BCCI shared a video of Sarfaraz Khan’s debut ceremony; however, Anand Mahendra was highly touched by Sarfaraz Khan’s inspirational journey and promised to give him a brand-new car.
Sarfaraz Khan made a staggering start to his international journey as he made a prolific 62 of 66 deliveries, which included nine fours and one six. Sarfraz Khan’s knock was praised all over the cricketing world, and Sanjay Manjrekar appreciated the youngster for his attacking approach in his debut match.
Sarfaraz Khan was one of the most consistent run-getters in the domestic circuit, having scored nearly 1000 runs in the past two seasons of the Ranji Trophy.
Sarfaraz Khan has played over 45 first-class games, scoring 3912 runs at an average of 69.85, which includes 14 hundreds and 11 half-centuries with a best score of 301.
