Sarfaraz Khan Slams Fastest List A Half-century By An Indian
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: India batter Sarfaraz Khan created history on Thursday with a breathtaking innings, smashing the fastest fifty by an Indian in List A cricket during Mumbai’s Vijay Hazare Trophy clash against Punjab at the Jaipuria Vidyalaya Ground.
Playing for Mumbai, Sarfaraz reached his half-century in just 15 balls, surpassing the previous record held by Ajith Sheth, who had achieved the feat in 16 deliveries against Chhattisgarh while representing Baroda.
Sarfaraz came to the crease at a crucial moment after Mumbai lost the wicket of his brother Musheer Khan in the ninth over. The 28-year-old wasted no time in imposing himself, hammering Punjab bowler Abhishek Sharma for 30 runs in his first over at the crease. He continued his onslaught in the following over, smashing Harpreet Brar for 19 runs off five balls. Sarfaraz brought up his landmark half-century in just 15 deliveries, shattering the five-year-old record.
