Sarfaraz, who was also in excellent form in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, completed a century in 56 balls, which was his third century in List A cricket. With its help, Mumbai scored a huge score of 444 runs for eight wickets and then restricted Goa to 357 runs for nine wickets.

This is Mumbai’s fourth consecutive win in the group league. Now one more win in the remaining three matches will definitely take them to the quarter-finals.

Yashasvi Jaiswal (46) made a comeback after being out of the opening week of the National ODI Championship due to ‘gastritis’ and Sarfaraz was completely dominant on the same day. He thrashed the Goa bowlers fiercely and hit nine fours and 14 sixes during his innings.

Of Sarfaraz’s 14 sixes, 10 were against off-spinner Lalit Yadav (two wickets for 93 runs) and left-arm spinner Darshan Misal (three wickets for 98 runs). Sarfaraz hit four sixes on Lalit and six sixes on Misal.

The balls of Arjun Tendulkar, son of the great Sachin Tendulkar, were also not spared, resulting in 78 runs in his eight overs.

Sarfaraz was out in the 42nd over and missed scoring his first double century in List A cricket. Despite this, Mumbai did not let the run pace slow down and scored more than 100 runs in the last eight overs.

Musheer Khan (60 runs), wicketkeeper Hardik Tamore (53 runs), Shams Mulani (22 runs), Tanush Kotian (23 runs not out) and captain Shardul Thakur (27 runs) also batted fast due to which the winning team hit a total of 35 fours and 25 sixes.

Goa never looked competitive while chasing the target. However, Lalit Yadav (64), Abhinav Tejrana (100) and Deepraj Gaikwad (70) batted well in the middle overs. But the target was so big that his innings was inadequate.

Captain Shardul Thakur once again proved his usefulness on a flat pitch, taking three wickets for 20 runs in six overs. Yashasvi Jaiswal, who was bowling leg-break, took two wickets for 52 runs in three overs.

While playing for Mumbai in Vijay Hazare Trophy, Sarfaraz Khan played a stormy inning of 157 runs in just 75 balls. During this, 9 fours and 14 sixes came from Sarfaraz’s bat. His brother Musheer Khan also scored a half-century. Musheer scored 60 runs in 66 balls with the help of 5 fours and two sixes. Whereas Yashasvi Jaiswal missed the half-century. He was out on 46 runs. However, Mumbai scored a huge score of 444 runs for 8 wickets in 50 overs.

Sarfaraz broke Rohit Sharma’s record

Sarfaraz Khan has broken Rohit Sharma’s record with his stormy innings of 157 runs in 75 balls. Actually, Sarfaraz scored a century in just 56 balls in this match. This is the fastest century in List A cricket for Mumbai. Earlier this record was in the name of Rohit Sharma. Rohit had scored a century in 62 balls against Sikkim.

Sarfaraz, who has been out of Team India for a long time, is scoring runs in all three formats in domestic cricket. After scoring consecutive runs in the red ball format, Sarfaraz did wonders in T20 in the Syed Mushtiq Ali Trophy. Now Sarfaraz is scoring runs continuously even in 50 over format. Sarfaraz will be a part of the Chennai Super Kings team in IPL 2026. Chennai bought him in the auction for Rs 75 lakh.

Mumbai scored 444 runs, Hardik also played explosive innings in T20 style.

Hardik Tamore scored 53 runs in 28 balls. 6 fours and two sixes came from his bat. Shams Mulani contributed 22 runs in 15 balls and Tanush Kotian contributed 23 unbeaten runs in 12 balls. Whereas Yashasvi Jaiswal was out after scoring 46 runs in 64 balls, Musheer Khan was out after scoring 60 runs in 66 balls and Angkrish Raghuvanshi was out after scoring only 11 runs in 18 balls. Mumbai scored a huge score of 444 runs. During this period, 25 sixes and 35 fours were hit.

Sarfaraz Khan, who is out of the Indian team, has once again given a strong message with his bat. While playing for Mumbai in Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025-26, Sarfaraz played such an innings against Goa, which directly caught the attention of the selectors. Century in 56 balls and 157 runs in 75 balls…these are not just statistics, but a strong claim to return to Team India.

Explosive style adopted against Goa

Coming to bat first at Jaipuria Vidyalaya Ground, Mumbai did not have a very fast start. Yashasvi Jaiswal managed to score 46 runs, while the other opener Angkrish Raghuvanshi was out early. After this Sarfaraz Khan and his younger brother Musheer Khan came on the field. From here the course of the match completely changed.

Sarfaraz showed aggressive attitude from the beginning and completed his half-century in just 23 balls. On the other hand, Musheer also played a useful inning of 60 runs while balancing restraint and aggression.

Century in 56 balls, Sarfaraz attacked the bowlers

Even after Musheer’s dismissal, Sarfaraz’s stance did not change. He attacked the Goa bowlers fiercely and completed his century in just 56 balls. During this time, fours and sixes kept raining from his bat. Even after the century, his pace did not stop and finally he was out after scoring 157 runs in 75 balls. In this innings he hit 9 fours and 14 sixes.

Which bowlers suffered the most loss?

Goa bowlers Darshan Misal and Lalit Yadav were the targets of Sarfaraz. Sarfaraz scored 50 runs on 20 balls of Darshan Misal, while he also scored a lot of runs on the balls of Lalit Yadav. This innings, played at a strike rate of around 210, was completely one-sided.

Great form in domestic cricket

Sarfaraz Khan’s current form is very good. He has scored 2 centuries and 4 half-centuries in his name in 10 innings of the last 11 domestic T20 and List-A matches. He had scored consecutive runs in Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy also and now he has continued the same rhythm in Vijay Hazare Trophy also.

Eye on IPL and Team India

No team had shown interest in Sarfaraz in the first round of IPL 2026 auction. Despite remaining unsold, Chennai Super Kings included him in their team in the second round with a base price of Rs 75 lakh. Now after this stormy innings in Vijay Hazare Trophy, Sarfaraz has made it clear that if he gets a chance, he is fully prepared for Team India also.

Pakistan cricket is once again in the news after defeating India in the Under-19 Asia Cup final. With this victory, Pakistan won the Under-19 Asia Cup title after 13 years and for the second time in history. The atmosphere of celebration after this match played at the ICC Academy Ground in Dubai was such that a Pakistani fan even stopped PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi.

Fan’s enthusiasm seen in viral video

After the final, a video went viral on social media, in which a Pakistani fan stops PCB Chairman and ACC President Mohsin Naqvi while leaving the venue. The fan enthusiastically repeats the famous dialogue from the Bollywood film PK, “Sarfaraz never cheats.” After this he appeals to Naqvi that Sarfaraz Ahmed should also be made the mentor of the team for the 2026 T20 World Cup. Naqvi was seen smiling and finally reacted by showing a thumbs up, which the fans took as a positive sign.

After Pakistan’s 191 run win over India in the U19 Asia Cup final, a fan urges PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi to make Sarfaraz Ahmed senior team mentor ahead of T20 World Cup 2026. Sarfaraz, who led Pakistan to the 2017 Champions Trophy, is currently U19 mentor.

Sarfaraz Ahmed’s name has always been associated with big final matches against India. In the year 2004, he defeated India in the Under-19 World Cup final. After this, in 2017, under his captaincy, Pakistan created history by winning the Champions Trophy. Now, as a mentor in the 2025 Under-19 Asia Cup, another final victory against India has been added to his account. This is the reason why Pakistani fans have started considering him as “lucky charm”.

final match status

Talking about the match, the foundation of Pakistan’s victory was the historic innings of Sameer Minhas. He scored 172 runs in 113 balls and took the team to 347 runs for 8 wickets. In reply, the Indian team could not withstand the pressure despite a fast start.

Pakistan’s fast bowlers kept the match completely under their control. Ali Raza, Mohammad Sayyam and Abdul Subhan did not give the Indian batting a chance to survive by taking advantage of the accurate line-length and bounce. With this victory, Pakistan won the Under-19 Asia Cup trophy after 13 years and the presence of Sarfaraz Ahmed once again became a big reason for discussion.
