Sarfaraz Khan in Ranji Trophy: Sarfaraz Khan scored 982 runs at an average of 122.75 in the 2021-22 season of the Ranji Trophy.
Sarfaraz Khan vs SuryaKumar Yadav: Team India was announced for the first two matches of the 4-match Test series against Australia in February. In this team, Mumbai batsman Sarfaraz Khan, who scored an average of 80 runs in first-class cricket, has not found a place, due to which everyone is surprised. The 25-year-old batsman scored runs at an average of 123 in the 2021-22 Ranji season. His bat is on fire in this Ranji season as well. He has scored runs in 5 matches at an average of 107. After this, he is ignored by the Test team.
Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan have been selected in the team selected for the first two matches of the Test series against Australia. Kishan has been selected as the backup wicketkeeper in place of Rishabh Pant, who was a victim of a road accident. The question is, on what basis has Suryakumar Yadav been selected? Has he been included in the Test team after seeing his form in white ball cricket? Is Ranji Trophy not the basis of selection in Team India?
Harsha Bhogle and Doda Ganesh expressed surprise
Suryakumar Yadav also plays domestic cricket for Mumbai only. Recently he has played a few matches in Ranji Trophy. In one match, he played an inning of 90 runs in 80 balls. Fans on social media are furious over the non-selection of Sarfaraz Khan in the Test series against Australia. At the same time, cricket expert and commentator Harsha Bhogle and former cricketer Doda Ganesh have also expressed surprise by tweeting.
