‘Go And Talk To Sarfaraz Khan’: Harbhajan Singh Wants BCCI To Clear Their Stance On Keeper-Batter

Former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh backed Sarfaraz Khan after the Ranji star was not selected for the Test squad against West Indies which will start from July 12 Tuesday.

World Cup-winning spinner reckoned that the Board for Cricket Control in India (BCCI) should talk to him and try to make him the player they want him to be.

India will play 2 Test matches followed by 3 ODIs and 5 T20Is and BCCI had already announced the squad and team is currently preparing in Dominica.

However in the Sarfaraz was unable to perform in the recently concluded Indian Premier League as the batter played four matches and just scored 52 runs.

“Sarfaraz will get his opportunity as he has scored heavily in domestic cricket. I want to know if anyone has made an effort to go and talk to him, may be from BCCI or state associations?” he asked. “He is scoring runs, so you need to go and talk to him. Try and make him the player you want him to be. You have to keep him around the group and keep him motivated that he will be selected” told Harbhajan Singh to PTI.

“I have a lot of respect for Chesteshwar Pujara for what he has achieved. He has been an unsung hero of Indian team for many years now. He has been one of those pillars of strength for India, doing the dirty work of hanging in there, making sure other batters got their comfort,” Harbhajan was blunt as ever in his assessment.
