The Irani Cup is being played between Saurashtra and Rest of India and the latter’s captain Hanuma Vihari opted to bowl first after winning the toss. The Rest of India bowlers proved their captain’s decision absolutely spot on as they wrapped up their opponent Saurashtra on a paltry score of just 98 runs. The Rest of India didn’t get off to a very good start but Sarfaraz steadied the ship with his century and Sarfaraz Khan pays tribute to Sidhu Moose Wala during his celebration.

The chips were down for Rest of India when Sarfaraz Khan came to bat as his team had lost 3 crucial wickets at the score of just 18 runs.

Sarfaraz took the attack to the bowlers and reached his century off just 92 deliveries. The highlight of his celebration was that Sarfaraz Khan pays tribute to the late singer Sidhu Moose Wala with his signature step.
