Why injustice to Sarfaraz Khan? (PC-PTI)
India A and South Africa A: An average of more than 65, almost 5 thousand runs, 16 centuries and 15 half-centuries, but despite this, there is no place even in Team India’s A team. These figures are of Sarfaraz Khan who has not been selected for the 2-match series against South Africa A. Sarfaraz Khan has been ignored once again. This player did not even get a chance in the series against Australia A. The reason given was that he was not fit but this time he was fit and hit with the bat but still Ajit Agarkar and Company did not give him a chance in India A. The question is why Sarfaraz Khan is being kept out of the team? After all, what is their mistake?
Fans stood up for Sarfaraz
Fans are very disappointed and angry due to Sarfaraz Khan not getting a place in India A team. Many fans have alleged that Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar is spoiling the career of this player. Let us tell you that this player has lost his weight in recent times and has also scored runs, but despite this he is not getting a chance. Sarfaraz Khan has got a chance in 6 test matches so far and he has scored 371 runs at an average of 37.10. But after the defeat of the three-match Test series against New Zealand, he has not been selected in the team.
Meet Sarfaraz Khan:
– he avg 65+ in FC, – he did great vs Eng in his debit series when India were 0-1 down, – he scored 150 runs 2 tests ago, – reduced 17 kg weight – passed yoyo test
Not picked for Ind-A, another career destroyed by Agarkar & Gambhir!!pic.twitter.com/W6BnG7cceJ
