Even though Chennai Super Kings suffered their third consecutive defeat in the Indian Premier League 2026, Sarfaraz Khan made the fans happy. The team had lost its 3 wickets in the powerplay. Sarfaraz not only came and took charge of the innings but also created a new record by hitting fifty while batting stormily. Coming fourth in the powerplay in the history of IPL, no batsman had ever scored a half-century.

New Delhi. India’s star batsman and Royal Challengers Bangalore player Virat Kohli is not called King for nothing. Be it his team player or opponent, he respects everyone’s better game. Something similar was seen on Sunday (April 5). Virat Kohli clapped and whistled for the innings of Chennai Super Kings batsman Sarfaraz Khan. The video of people applauding his explosive innings is viral on social media. Sarfaraz performed brilliantly in the match but his team failed to chase the big target of 251 runs.
