In a strong message to Shreyas Iyer and Ajinkya Rahane, Sarfaraz Khan said that every Mumbai cricketer should experience playing in the Kanga League, which is scheduled during the city’s monsoon season from July to October every year.

But he told how legends like Sunil Gavaskar and Sachin Tendulkar never thought of this way and ended among the great people of all time.

Sarfaraz Khan’s special request for Mumbai cricketers
He urged the big players of Mumbai to participate in the tournament to motivate the next generation. Sarfaraz signed, saying, “If big players participate in this tournament, it will be an inspiration for the youth of the city. Kanga League is such a tournament that if you are successful here, you can score any runs in the world.”
In particular, the great people of former Mumbai such as Sunil Gavaskar, Sachin Tendulkar, Sandeep Patil, and Dilip Vengsarkar always created time for the Kanga League whenever they could have represented the country at the highest level.
India is set to host the West Indies in the two -match Test series in October, followed by another two tests against South Africa in November, and Sarfaraz would prefer to get back into a dispute for the home season during the longest home season.
