Star Mumbai batter Sarfaraz Khan has been phenomenal on his Test debut against England. However, his remarkable debut performance faced an unfortunate end due to a run-out. A misunderstanding with Ravindra Jadeja in the third Test against England led to this situation. Sarfaraz’s swift half-century, achieved in just 48 balls, was steering India out of trouble, but a precise throw resulted in his run-out.
In his innings, he scored 62 runs in 66 balls with the help of nine fours and a six. The stadium echoed with disappointment as fans, both present and glued to their TV screens, struggled to believe the unexpected turn of events.
Here is the video of Rohit Sharma’s reaction:

In the dressing room, Indian captain Rohit Sharma’s reaction spoke volumes about the frustration and disappointment felt by the team. As Sarfaraz Khan trudged back to the pavilion, Rohit Sharma, visibly upset, removed his cap and tossed it away in irritation. The captain’s frustration seemed directed towards Ravindra Jadeja, the unfortunate partner in the run-out.
Rohit Sharma scored a beautiful century!
The incident occurred just a few overs before the conclusion of the first day’s play at the Niranjan Shah Stadium. India, recovering from an early slump at 33 runs for three wickets, found stability with the partnership between Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja.
Their combined effort added over 200 runs for the fourth wicket, leading India to a commanding position by the end of the day. Rohit Sharma, in particular, showcased his captaincy skills with a remarkable innings of 131 runs off 196 balls, featuring 14 fours and 3 sixes.
Ravindra Jadeja was just one run away from his fourth Test century when the run-out incident occurred. Despite the unfortunate event, India concluded the day’s play on a positive note, having lost only five wickets and amassing 326 runs in 86 overs. The partnership between Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja played a crucial role in India’s recovery, setting the stage for a promising total.
Sarfaraz Khan’s run-out, during an otherwise dominant performance, served as an unexpected anticlimax, leaving fans and players alike grappling with mixed emotions as India wrapped up a day that witnessed both challenges and triumphs.
