India-Bangladesh second test is to be played in Kanpur from 27th September. If Sarfaraz Khan does not get a place in the playing eleven for that match, then Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) can send him a demand letter to play for Mumbai in the Irani Cup. Let us tell you that Mumbai’s squad is to be announced tomorrow. Talking about Mushir Khan, he played at number-3 for Mumbai in the last season of Ranji Trophy. If Sarfaraz also joins the team, then the responsibility of making Mumbai win against Rest of India will fall on the Khan brothers.
According to PTI, a BCCI source said that Sarfaraz Khan is the only specialist batsman in the squad. Dhruv Jurel is the wicketkeeper and Axar Patel is an all-rounder. What will happen if a player suddenly gets injured. The Irani Cup is starting on October 1 and if the match ends early, then coming from Kanpur to Lucknow on September 30 will not be a big deal.” Let us tell you that India’s T20 team captain Suryakumar Yadav and all-rounder Shivam Dubey will also not play in the Irani Cup. They will leave for Gwalior on October 3 as the 3 T20 match series between India and Bangladesh will start from October 6.
