Sarfaraz Khan had a brilliant day at the office during the Ranji Trophy fixture between Mumbai and Hyderabad. Mumbai had a decent start to the proceedings as openers Akhil Herwadkar and Akash Anand put up 61 runs for the first wicket. But the team then lost a bit of momentum after losing three wickets in quick succession.
But it was captain Siddhesh Lad and Sarfaraz Khan who provided the resistance and chipped in with a big partnership of 249 runs for the fourth wicket.
While the captain was dismissed for 104 after being trapped in front of the stumps by Rohit Rayudu, Sarfaraz continued his stunning form and ended the first day’s play at 142* along side Himanshu Singh who is yet to open the account.
Rohit Rayudu picked up two wickets while skipper Mohammed Siraj and Nitin Yadav scalped a wicket apiece. Mumbai were 332/4 at stumps.
Covering sports for fun. Cricket in whites remains the first love—the kind that teaches patience, rewards nuance, and tells stories over five days rather than five seconds.
