Team India's young cricketer Sarfaraz Khan is soon becoming one of the most popular figures among the fans due to his on-field antics. After his sledging incident with Jonny Bairstow on day 3 of the 5th Test in Dharamsala, the youngster also chirped some words to Shoaib Bashir as the video of the same went viral on social media.
With Shoaib Bashir dead-batting Kuldeep Yadav's spin-bowling, Sarfaraz, stationed at short leg, said in Hindi, 'Maar yaar jaldi, snow pe chalte hain upar, ghoom ke aayenge'. (Play fast, we will go in the snow and roam around a bit).
Bashir dogged's resistance of 50 deliveries for 13 runs, headlined by 3 boundaries came to an end as Ravindra Jadeja castled him with a beauty.
Sarfaraz Khan hit a quick-fire half-century in Dharamsala:
Sarfaraz, who made his debut in Rajkot, hit 62 in his first outing, followed by an unbeaten 68 in the same match. While the 26-year-old could not contribute a lot of runs in the Ranchi Test, he sizzled with a knock of 56 in Dharamsala, adding a century stand with Devdutt Padikkal.
Team India registered an innings and 64-run victory over England in Dharamsala, capping off a 4-1 series win. Yashasvi Jaiswal earned the Player of the Series award for his 712 runs in 5 Tests. India also maintained their top spot in the World Test Championship (WTC) table, while on Sunday, climbed to the summit of the ICC Test rankings.
