Mumbai: Sarfraz Khan followed the performance of knocking open the doors of the Indian team. After returning to the Mumbai team, Sarfraz has been in brilliant form in domestic cricket. The player was selected for the India A team last year but is waiting for a call to the main team. Sarfraz scored two centuries this season.
After scoring 32 runs off 28 balls against Assam and remaining unbeaten, the star’s batting average crossed 80 once again. Sarfraz is one of only two batsmen to average over 80 in first-class cricket. The list is topped by Don Bradman who finished his career with a batting average of 95.14 in first class cricket. The Australian legend scored 28067 runs in 234 matches. That includes 117 centuries and 69 fifties.
Sarfraz Khan, who is yet to debut in international cricket, has a higher batting average in first-class cricket than Indian legends Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli. In any case, the performance of Sarfraz in recent years should be seen in the eyes of the Indian selectors. Border – When the squad for the Gavaskar Trophy is announced, fans are keen to see if the player will be included in it. A
Mumbai batsman Prithvi Shah also made a grand comeback with a record triple century in the Ranji Trophy this summer. Prithvi Shah is the opener who is rumored to replace Virender Sehwag in Indian cricket. The player is capable of scoring fast but has come and gone in the team due to injuries and lack of form. Shah, who scored 379 runs in the Ranji Trophy, is putting his name before the selectors again. The selectors cannot turn a blind eye to Shah’s batting as the ODI and T20 teams against New Zealand are to be announced soon. But the challenge before the selectors is who will replace Prithvi in the team.
