Sarfaraz has been in exceptional touch on the domestic circuit. In the ongoing Buchi Babu Tournament in Chennai, he hammered an unbeaten 109 off as many balls against Haryana.

Walking in with Mumbai reeling at 84 for four, he stitched together a crucial 117-run partnership with Hardik Tamore to revive the innings. His knock, studded with nine fours and five sixes, came right after his blazing 138-run effort in the tournament opener against TNCA XI.Although Mumbai crashed out of the competition after conceding a first-innings lead to Bengal, Sarfaraz’s consistency has been the major positive takeaway.

With India’s home West Indies Test series around the corner, his performances could not have come at a better time.Meanwhile, Rohit is also in the midst of his preparation phase as he gears up to lead India in a three-match Australia ODI series beginning October 19 in Perth. Having retired from Tests in May after a glittering career, the 38-year-old is eyeing a return to international cricket after over seven months.A recent video of Rohit’s net session showcased his trademark timing and reassured fans about his fitness after a brief health scare last week. The sight of Rohit mentoring Sarfaraz at the NCA has also triggered speculation that the young batter is being groomed for bigger challenges, as stalwarts like Rohit and Virat Kohli gradually transition out of the longest format.
