Sarfaraz Khan dons India’s training kit, celebrates comeback with his father

Sarfaraz Khan dons India’s training kit, celebrates comeback with his father

Sarfaraz Khan, the Indian cricketer, has rejoined the national team for their upcoming two-Test series in Sri Lanka. He was included in the squad as a replacement for Sai Sudharsan, who is recovering from a right toe stress reaction. Sarfaraz, who last played for India in November 2024, has a first-class average of 64.73 in 62 matches but has only played six Tests for India.

The 28-year-old shared a photo of himself wearing the Indian team's training kit, posing alongside his father, Naushad Khan, a former club cricketer and coach. The Bengaluru-based cricketer had been frozen out of the team for over a year but was recently called up for the Sri Lanka series.
