Despite his promising start in the ongoing Test series against England, Indian batsman Rajat Patidar once again failed to deliver and was dismissed for a low score of 17 runs. This marks his continued struggle in the Indian Test team, with fans now calling for his removal from the team. As reactions pour in on social media, questions arise about his future in the Test team.
The two-day warm-up match between India A and England Lions ended in a draw as Rajat Patidar hit 111 runs and Sarfaraz Khan scored 96. Despite good performances from players like Bharat and Jurel, the game ultimately ended without a winner. Both teams will have a chance to face off again in the upcoming four-day match starting on January 17.
Despite consistent performances in first-class cricket, Sarfaraz Khan has once again been snubbed by the national selectors for the upcoming Test series against England. On the heels of the squad announcement, Sarfaraz put up an impressive batting display in a drawn match for India A, further showcasing his talent and potential for the national team. However, report suggest that fitness may be a factor in his omission. The rest of the squad remains unchanged, with the inclusion of Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, and Dhruv Jurel.
