Team India definitely selected Sarfaraz Khan in the team for the Test series against Bangladesh. But, he was not given a chance to play in even a single match. Now Sarfaraz Khan has scored a brilliant century in the Irani Cup. Another excellent innings has been played for Mumbai in first class cricket. By scoring hundreds, he has once again staked his claim for a place in Team India.

Sarfaraz Khan's century in Irani Cup

Sarfaraz Khan had completed his century even before lunch on the second day of the match. Till lunch, he has scored 103 runs facing 155 balls, which included 14 fours. This is Sarfaraz Khan's 15th century in first class cricket. Thanks to Sarfaraz's century, the Mumbai team, which started with initial shocks, now seems to be moving towards a big score in its first innings.

Sarfaraz's century is asking questions

Even before the end of the last match of the Test series against Bangladesh in Kanpur, Sarfaraz was released and sent to play the Irani Cup. Sarfaraz scored a century as soon as he entered the Irani Cup. This century of Sarfaraz is also raising a question to the Indian team management that why can't he make a place in the playing eleven?


After a solid inning against Rest of India on the Irani Cup pitch, it is now expected that he will not only be selected in the team in the 3-Test home series to be played against New Zealand but will also get a chance in the playing eleven. Can get.

Rahane and Iyer scored half centuries

Apart from the century of Sarfaraz Khan, half-centuries of Ajinkya Rahane and Shreyas Iyer were also seen against Rest of India. Ajinkya Rahane missed his century by 3 runs i.e. he was out after scoring 97 runs. Whereas Iyer scored 57 runs for Mumbai.
