New Delhi: Sarfaraz Khan is often in the news because of his batting but in the first innings of the Mumbai Test, he is in the headlines because of his mischief. Actually, on the first day of the Mumbai Test, Sarfaraz Khan did something that the umpires had to talk to him. He was even given a warning and not only this, a complaint was also made against him to captain Rohit Sharma. Now you must be wondering what exactly did Sarfaraz Khan do?
Sarfaraz’s sledging:
Sarfaraz Khan was fielding at short leg in the Mumbai Test. He was standing very close to the batsman and was seen whispering something in his ear. Sarfaraz Khan was talking so much that the New Zealand batsmen started getting distracted. After this, New Zealand all-rounder Daryl Mitchell complained about him.

Rohit Sharma got angry:
When Darrell Mitchell complained to the umpires about Sarfaraz, captain Rohit Sharma appeared angry. He was seen saying something to Darrell Mitchell. This is not the first time that players or wicketkeepers do not talk to the batsman, it keeps happening. But the way Mitchell complained to the umpire did not go down well with Team India.
New Zealand batters were in trouble:
By the way, Sarfaraz was not the only one to trouble the New Zealand batsmen in the Mumbai Test. Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja also troubled the Kiwis. Sundar bowled Tom Latham and Rachin Ravindra. At the same time, Jadeja got Will Young caught out and bowled Tom Blundell in the same over. Team India got its first success from Akash Deep, who showed Conway the way to the pavilion.
