Gautam Gambhir’s reported treatment of Sarfaraz Khan has sparked discussion once again, with many suggesting that the talented batter is facing step-motherly treatment under the new team management.
Despite piling up runs in domestic cricket year after year, Sarfaraz has not received a single opportunity in the Indian team since Gambhir took charge.
🏏 Allegations of Dressing Room Leak
According to reports, Gambhir was unhappy with Sarfaraz for allegedly leaking information from the dressing room. This controversy is believed to be one of the main reasons behind his exclusion.
📉 Strong Debut, Yet No Comeback
Sarfaraz made his Test debut in February 2024 and impressed immediately, scoring 371 runs in six matches with consistent performances. However, despite this promising start, a comeback looks tough as long as the current management setup remains unchanged.
With Gambhir favouring a different player profile and team combination, Sarfaraz’s future in the Indian squad appears uncertain — even though his domestic form continues to speak for itself.
