IND vs ENG: Sarfaraz Khan’s luck, who made a splash in Ranji, could shine in the third Test match against England starting February 14. Sarfaraz Khan is all set to make his Test debut for Team India. After Shreyas Iyer’s injury, Sarfaraz Khan seems to be on his way to 11th place. In the third Test, Team India can take the field with just one fast bowler. In such a situation, Sarfaraz Khan along with Rajat Patidar will also get a chance to play for Team India.
Shreyas Iyer had to take part in the last three Tests against England due to injury. However, the return of KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja in the third Test is confirmed. However, it is also confirmed that Virat Kohli will not be a part of Team India in the third and fourth Tests either. This is why Team India’s middle order looks very weak. To compensate for this, the team management can enter the field with an additional batsman. Anyway, with the return of Jadeja, Team India’s bowling attack becomes much stronger.
Sarfaraz Khan’s chances of playing increased
Another important reason for Sarfaraz’s game is that the Indian batsmen are out of form. Rohit Sharma has not scored a fifty in the last eight Test innings. However, Shubman Gill returned to form and scored a century in the final innings. But before that, his racket also failed. Rajat Patidar also failed to score many runs in the first Test. In such a situation, the team management can give Sarfaraz Khan a chance to play at number 6. In this situation, Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel will do the spin bowling. Jasprit Bumrah will take over the fast bowling single-handedly.
