Not disappointed by not playing in IPL, will get one more year to understand T20: Mushir Khan – Dainik Savera Times

Mumbai:Securing an Indian Premier League (IPL) contract may be a priority for cricketers but Mumbai’s young Ranji Trophy hero Musheer Khan is happy that he was not sold in last year’s player auction as it gave him some more time to understand the T20 format. Will get time. Musheer (19 years) broke the record of great cricketer Sachin Tendulkar by scoring a century in the Ranji Trophy final and became the youngest player to score a century in the final for Mumbai.

He believes that he will earn name in IPL in the coming time. “My name is not in the IPL,” Musheer told PTI in a video, reiterating the words of his father and coach Naushad. But I am not disappointed. My father told me to play Test cricket and for Team India. Will play IPL later, if not today then tomorrow. He said, “It is good that I got another year to prepare for the IPL.

I will now understand T20 cricket more and how I should prepare for this format. Musheer recently scored 136 runs in Mumbai’s second innings in the Ranji Trophy final to help Vidarbha set a target of 538 runs. With this, Mumbai team was successful in winning the 42nd Ranji Trophy title. It is understandable that Musheer takes inspiration for this performance from his elder brother Sarfaraz, who made his debut for India in the third Test against England in Rajkot last month.

Musheer said, “I take a lot of inspiration from my brother after seeing his dedication and his batting. Our batting style is also similar. He told me before the Ranji Trophy final match to treat it like a normal match and not take too much pressure. He said, “Even though it may have looked like a normal match from outside, we were feeling the pressure on the field. He had said that trust your skills and play accordingly.
