Sarfaraz Khan is often in the news because of his batting but he is in the headlines because of his mischief in the first innings of Mumbai Test. In fact, on the first day of the Mumbai Test, Sarfaraz Khan did something that the umpires had to talk to him. He was even given a warning and not only this, a complaint was also made to captain Rohit Sharma. Now you must be wondering what did Sarfaraz Khan do?
Sarfaraz’s mischief
Sarfaraz Khan was fielding at short leg in the Mumbai Test. He was standing very close to the batsman and along with this he was seen saying something or the other in his ear. Sarfaraz Khan was talking so much that the New Zealand batsmen started getting distracted. After this, New Zealand all-rounder Darrell Mitchell complained about him.

Rohit Sharma got angry
When Darrell Mitchell complained about Sarfaraz to the umpires, captain Rohit Sharma appeared angry. He was seen saying something to Darrell Mitchell. This is not the first time that players or wicketkeepers do not talk to the batsman, this happens regularly. But Team India did not like the way Mitchell complained to the umpire.
New Zealand’s batsmen have problems
However, it was not only Sarfaraz who troubled the New Zealand batsmen in the Mumbai Test. Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja also troubled the Kiwis. Sundar bowled Tom Latham and Rachin Ravindra. Whereas Jadeja got Will Young caught out and Tom Blundell bowled in the same over. Team India got its first success by Akash Deep, who showed Conway the way to the pavilion.
