Sarfaraz Khan, the young Mumbai batsman known for his prolific run-scoring in domestic cricket, came up with a magnificent maiden Test century against New Zealand. His brilliant knock, a blend of aggression and resilience, has injected life into the first Test at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, where India faced an uphill battle after a disastrous first innings collapse.

Coming in at number 4, Sarfaraz showcased his exceptional talent, reaching his century off just 110 balls. His innings, studded with 13 fours and three sixes, was a testament to his aggressive intent and ability to dominate the bowling attack. He displayed remarkable composure and maturity, building a crucial partnership with Virat Kohli on Day 3 and continuing his assault on Day 4 alongside Rishabh Pant.

Sarfaraz's impressive knock has not only rescued India from a precarious position but also etched his name in the record books. He joins an elite list of Indian batsmen to score a Test century at number 4, including legends like Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli, Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman, Sourav Ganguly, and Ajinkya Rahane.

After a disappointing first innings duck, where India were bundled out for a paltry 46, he has responded with a defiant knock that has given the hosts a fighting chance in the match.
