WATCH: Sarfaraz Khan’s cheeky shot against James Anderson during Rajkot Test goes viral

India’s young debutant Sarfaraz Khan has left many fans stunned with his amazing debut against England in Rajkot. The 26-year-old hit two half-centuries including a 68 not out in the 2^nd innings during the Test.

On the 4^th and final day of the game, Sarfaraz Khan did something that even left James Anderson stunned. Just as the England veteran was going to bowl, Sarfaraz changed his stance a bit. It looked as if he was going to play the scoop shot against Anderson.

On spotting the ball not in the right length to play the shot, Sarfaraz adjusted his position. It was an anti-climax as the ball was defended back to the bowler. The veteran bowler wasn’t pleased one bit as he shot the youngster a look.

Sachin Tendulkar praises Sarfaraz Khan and Yashasvi Jaiswal –

Former India batting legend Sachin Tendulkar was seen heaping praise on Sarfaraz Khan and Yashasvi Jaiswal. The 50-year-old took to social media to write his happiness about India’s two young batting talents.

“Double hundred. Double fifty. This duo of Yashasvi & Sarfaraz has been double trouble for England. I couldn’t watch them play live, but was very pleased to hear about their knocks. Keep it up,” wrote Sachin Tendulkar on Twitter.

Rohit Sharma also praised the amazing performance on debut by the 26-year-old. The Indian skipper speaking to the media at the end of the game said, “For this game, we thought he has got so much experience and has a lot of runs as well, we wanted that left-right combo, Sarfaraz being Sarfaraz and with the quality he has got, we wanted him to have time. We saw what he can do with the bat.”

The Indian skipper also said, “It’s not a long-term view, we go with the flow and what we feel on that particular day, looking at the opposition, the bowling attack. We calculate everything and then go with the flow.”

Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sarfaraz Khan dominated the England bowling attack on day four of the game. The left-handed opening batter slammed James Anderson for three sixes in a row to set up the tempo. The 214 not out was his second successive double ton to add to his growing legend.
