‘If anyone has made an effort…’, Harbhajan on Sarfaraz’s WI Test Snub

Once again Sarfaraz Khan was overlooked for selection ahead of the tour of West Indies. Ex-Indian cricket team spinner Harbhajan Singh believes that BCCI need to talk to Sarfaraz and try to mould him into the kind of player that they want him to be.

In an interaction with PTI, Harbhajan said –

“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?”

Harbhajan added – “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.”

Cheteshwar Pujara was also dropped for the upcoming Test series and Harbhajan feels that Indian cricket hasn’t exactly learned to value his contribution.

Harbhajan was blunt as ever in his assessment –

“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.”
