India’s squad for the second Test against England, starting February 2, saw Sarfaraz Khan’s inclusion, rewarding his stellar domestic performances. Ravindra Jadeja and KL Rahul’s injuries necessitated changes. Sarfaraz, a standout for Mumbai domestically and in India ‘A’, received accolades from his father Naushad Khan. Expressing gratitude to Mumbai Cricket Association, the National Cricket Academy, BCCI, selectors, and fans, Naushad hopes Sarfaraz contributes to India’s success.
Despite India’s close defeat in the first Test in Hyderabad, the team led by Rohit Sharma remains optimistic for the upcoming matches. The second match in Visakhapatnam commences Friday.
The BCCI confirmed the additions of Sarfaraz Khan, Saurabh Kumar, and Washington Sundar to the squad due to injuries to Jadeja and Rahul, monitored closely by BCCI medical staff.
