The two-Test series between India and Bangladesh will begin on September 19. The BCCI has announced the Indian team for the first match and the Indian players are currently camping in Chennai and preparing vigorously. Sarfaraz Khan has also got a place in the team, but his poor form before the series is a matter of concern for Team India.
Sarfaraz Khan's flop show in Duleep Trophy
Even after the announcement of Team India's team, right-handed batsman Sarfaraz Khan is playing in the second round of Duleep Trophy, while the rest of the players have joined the team in Chennai. Actually, Sarfaraz wants to regain his rhythm before the start of red ball cricket. But he is failing in this. Sarfaraz is playing for India B and in the first round, he could score only 55 runs in two innings.
Fans were hoping that this young right-handed batsman would definitely perform well in the second innings, but he has once again dashed all hopes. In India B's first innings, he returned to the pavilion after scoring just 16 runs. He was out LBW by Anshul Kamboj. Seeing this form of Sarfaraz, the question arising in the minds of the fans is whether the selectors have made a mistake by giving him a place in the team.
Will not get a chance in the playing eleven
Sarfaraz Khan made his Test debut against England in February. He struggled a lot to get the Indian team's Test cap. He fully lived up to the trust shown by the board. He scored 200 runs in three matches at an average of 50. Meanwhile, a half-century came off his bat. Perhaps keeping this record in mind, the BCCI has selected Sarfaraz in the team for the upcoming home Test series. Looking at his form so far in the Duleep Trophy, it seems that he may not get a place in the playing eleven for the Chennai Test.
