Musheer Khan is currently making a name for himself in the prestigious Duleep Trophy tournament, particularly in the first game against India A, where he scored a impressive ton. After witnessing a batting collapse, Musheer took charge and is leading the team along with Navdeep Saini. The duo has posted more than a 100-run partnership, taking the game away from India A. Now, discussions are emerging about this young talent who is showcasing his potential with standout performances.
Who is Musheer Khan?
Not to be surprised, but he is the younger brother of Sarfaraz Khan, Sarfaraz, who has already made his debut for the Indian Test team and is performing consistently well, whether in the IPL or first-class cricket. Musheer, born in Kurla, Bombay, came into the limelight at an early age in cricket.
The icing on the cake was his performance in the 2024 Under-19 World Cup in South Africa, where he scored 360 runs in seven matches. Bowling left-arm spin, he picked up seven wickets at an economy rate of under four runs per over. His centuries came against New Zealand and Ireland.
Additionally, he picked up seven wickets while maintaining his economy rate below four. Musheer was included in Mumbai’s squad for the 2022 U19 Cooch Behar Trophy, where he got the Player of the Tournament award for scoring 632 runs and taking 32 wickets.
Now, all eyes are on him to see if he can make his debut soon for India, as he currently has three centuries in first-class cricket.
