Sarfaraz Khan and Musheer Khan
Barely 48 hours after receiving his umpteenth snub from the selectors, Mumbai's ârun-machine' Sarfaraz Khan served a stern reminder to the national selection committee with a majestic 161 that put India âA' in complete command over England Lions on Day Two of the second unofficial Test.
Having bowled out England for 152 on the opening day, India âA', starting the day at 150 for no loss, ended on 489 (a massive 337-run first innings lead) giving them a good shot of gunning for an innings victory.

Meanwhile, younger brother Musheer Khan (118) gave ample display of his immense talent with a superb hundred as India steam-rolled minnows Ireland by a whopping 201 runs in the ICC U-19 World Cup in Bloemfontein, South Africa.
