India A Squad, Sarfaraz Khan: A series of 5 test matches will be played between India and England. The first match of this test series will be played from 25th January. But before that the England team will play a warm-up match against India A. A warm-up match will be played between India A and England from January 12. However, the India-A team has been announced for this warm match. Abhimanyu Easwaran will lead this team. Apart from this, young players like Sarfaraz Khan will have a great opportunity to prove themselves.
Will Sarfaraz Khan be able to prove himself?
Earlier, Sarfaraz Khan had scored a stormy century in the practice match between India and India-A before the South Africa series. Sarfaraz Khan made a lot of headlines by scoring a century against Rohit Sharma’s team during that three-day intra-squad practice match. In that match, Sarfaraz Khan had touched the century mark in just 61 balls. However, now before the England series, Sarfaraz Khan has a great opportunity to catch the attention of the selectors. Although Sarfaraz Khan has been scoring runs consistently in domestic matches, his performance has not been as per expectations for some time now.
