IND vs ENG / BCCI's duplicity, Surya-Jurel were cheated by those with an average of 70 on the spot!

IND vs ENG: BCCI's Senior Selection Committee announced the team for the first two matches of the five-match Test series to be played against England late on Friday night. This team selection surprised many people. A name was included in it which no one had thought of. But at the same time, ignoring a player who is continuously scoring runs in domestic cricket came to the fore again. This player is Sarfaraz Khan. Sarfaraz is continuously scoring runs but still the selectors are continuously ignoring him.

Now let's talk about that player who has come to the Test team, about whom no one had thought. This player is wicketkeeper-batsman Dhruv Jurail. Jurail, who made headlines by playing stormy innings for Rajasthan Royals in the last IPL, is also continuously impressing, but he will come to the Test team and that too when two wicketkeepers are already present, it is not known to anyone. Didn't think.

When will Sarfaraz get a chance?

Sarfaraz has been scoring runs continuously in the last two-three years. Even before cricket was stopped due to Covid, Sarfaraz's bat has been shining and scoring runs. In the year 2021-22, he was the highest run-scorer in Ranji Trophy. He also shone in the Irani Trophy and his bat also shone while playing for India A, but till now he has not got a place in the Test team. After team selection, Sarfaraz played an inning of 96 runs against England Lions while playing for India-A on Saturday itself. Sarfaraz's average in first class is 69.66 i.e. almost 70 but still he is out of the team. Before him, T20 specialist Suryakumar Yadav has got a chance in Test. He has also made his Test debut against Australia in 2023. And now before him Jurail has also got a chance. However, Jurail is also scoring continuously. In such a situation, when he can make a place in the team then why not Sarfaraz?

Space could be made

Sarfaraz could have made a place in the team that has been selected for the two test matches. The selection committee headed by Ajit Agarkar has selected three wicketkeepers for these two matches. KL Rahul has been selected as wicketkeeper. He has recently played the role of wicketkeeper in the two test match series played in South Africa. Apart from him, KS Bharat is also in the team. Apart from these two, there is Jurail. The rationale for selecting three wicketkeepers in India is not understood because if we look at the thinking of the team management, only Rahul or Bharat can play the role of wicketkeeper, in such a situation Sarfaraz could have been selected in the team instead of Jurail. This gives Sarfaraz confidence and also motivates him. Well, the Test team for three matches is yet to be announced and Sarfaraz and Sarfaraz's fans will be hoping that the doors of Team India will open for them.
