In a challenging first Test against New Zealand in Bengaluru, Sarfaraz Khan faced significant difficulties, contributing to India’s dismal total of just 46 runs. This performance marks one of the lowest scores in India’s Test history.
Playing on a pitch that offered considerable assistance to seam bowlers, Sarfaraz was dismissed without scoring, becoming one of several key players who failed to make an impact. His early exit from the innings was a notable moment in a match where India struggled against the New Zealand bowling attack.
Sarfaraz Khan’s wicket was one of several that fell in quick succession, as India battled against a formidable New Zealand side led by bowlers like Matt Henry and Will O’Rourke, who took advantage of the conditions. Following this match, the pressure will be on Sarfaraz to bounce back in future fixtures and regain his form.
