IND V ENG: Sarfaraz Khan Slams Joint-second Fastest Half-century On Test Debut For India
With this half-century, he became the joint-second fastest Indian batter along with Hardik Pandya to score a half-century on his Test debut. Hardik took 48 balls to reach his fifty on debut against Sri Lanka in 2017. Sarfaraz and Pandya are just behind former India cricketer Yadavenadrasingh (Yuvraj of Patiala) who made a fifty in his first and last Test in 42 deliveries in 1934.
However, Sarfaraz suffered a scary run-out halting his innings on 62. On 99, Ravindra Jadeja pushed one straight to mid-on and called Sarfaraz Khan, who reacted immediately only to be sold down the river by the senior partner. Mark Wood guiding the mid-on region picked the ball and with a direct hit on the non-strike end caught Sarfaraz short and halted his innings. Sarfaraz's innings was built on nine boundaries and a single six off Joe Root.
