Indian cricketer Sarfaraz Khan has made a remarkable start to his Test career, showcasing his talent with three half-centuries in three matches. Despite his impressive performance, Sarfaraz went unsold in the IPL 2024 auction, surprising many fans and pundits.
Aakash Chopra wasn’t surprised by Sarfaraz’s IPL absence, citing recency bias in player selections. He suggested Sarfaraz might be picked in a later auction. Chopra highlighted Sarfaraz’s potential to secure a contract in the future.
In his debut Test, Sarfaraz played a brilliant knock of 62 runs before getting run-out, followed by another half-century in the second innings. Chopra noted the discussions surrounding Sarfaraz’s performance and compared it to the attention received by players like Pat Cummins.
While there have been reports of Sarfaraz being contacted by IPL franchises, no official announcement has been made. Despite representing various IPL teams in the past, Sarfaraz has yet to make a significant impact in the league.
