Sarfraz will aim to perform well in both tournaments and keep himself ready for the upcoming Test series against India. However, he knows that with the return of Virat Kohli and KL Rahul in the middle order, his place in the playing XI is not guaranteed.

I have always been doing this and I see no reason to change it,” Sarfaraz Khan was quoted as saying by the Indian Express. He further added, “Some get a break very early in their career.

But after that, I was in control. Whatever I used to do at the domestic level, I was doing the same in Test cricket. I was very clear in my mind. I was not looking at the opposition or the bowler.”
