Sarfaraz Khan hammered a blistering century for Mumbai while playing against Goa in the Vijay Hazare Trophy in Jaipur on Wednesday. Opener Yashasvi Jaiswal who made a return in India’s premier One-day domestic tournament struck 46 off 64 while Musheer Khan scored 60 off 66.
But it was Sarfaraz who made headlines after the right-handed batter showed thorough dominance with the bat and notched up 157 off just 75 deliveries. Sarfaraz’s knock was decorated with 14 maximums and 9 fours as he scored runs at a strike-rate of over 200.
Apart from him, captain Shardul Thakur chipped in with 27 off 8, wicket-keeper batter Hardik Tamore hit a quick-fire half-century while Shams Mulani struck 22 off 15 as Mumbai eventually posted 444/8 in 50 overs.
Sarfaraz was recently bought by the Chennai Super Kings for INR 75 lakh in the mini auction.
Left-arm pacer Arjun Tendulkar who made a switch to Goa from Mumbai hasn’t been in greatest of forms in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. He went wicket-less in the first two matches against Himachal Pradesh and Sikkim while leaked runs at an economy of over 9 against Mumbai in Jaipur. He returned with figures of 0/78 in 9 overs. He featured against Mumbai for the first time in the Vijay Hazare Trophy after switching the team.
