After Sarfaraz Khan earns maiden India call-up, brother Musheer slams hundred for U19 team in World Cup
Just a day after his elder brother Sarfaraz Khan earned his maiden India call-up, Musheer Khan slammed a century for the India U19 cricket team in their ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup Super Six math against New Zealand in Bloemfontein on Tuesday. By doing so, Musheer also became only the second Indian, after Shikhar Dhawan to score multiple centuries in the Under-19 World Cup.

This was Musheer’s second century in this World Cup after a knock of 118 against Ireland on 25 January. Dhawan had scored three centuries in the 2004 edition.
Sarfaraz, meanwhile, played for India in the 2014 and 2016 U19 World Cup editions.
On Tuesday, Musheer scored 131 runs before being dismissed by Mason Clarke in the 48th over. His knock led India to 295/8 in 50 overs after being asked to bat.
