<p>In 45 first-class games, Sarfaraz has amassed 3912 runs at an average of 69.85, with 14 century and 11 half-centuries.</p>
<p>Sarfaraz has been added to India’s team for the second Test, which is scheduled to begin in Visakhapatnam on February 2 along with Washington Sundar and Saurabh Kumar, who are not yet capped.</p>
<p>Sarfaraz seems to be doing his research since he posted a photo of Mumbai’s Cross Maidan early on Tuesday morning, maybe before a workout.</p>
<p>In a video released on Monday, just after Sarfaraz was called up to the Indian team, his father praised the BCCI and the selectors for believing in the 26-year-old.</p>
<p>I express my gratitude to the Mumbai Cricket Association, National Cricket Academy, BCCI, selectors, and well-wishers for their belief in him. He said, “I hope he performs well for the nation and helps the squad win.</p>
