Sarfraz Ahmed still playing I see. He was a seriously good Test keeper/bat from what I remember. Though tbh I don't think I can remember much of his keeping6 hundreds in an innings equals the first-class record set by Holkar v Mysore in the 1945-6 Ranji Trophy. On that occasion CT Sarwate followed up his hundred with 9-61.
Even 5 hundreds in an innings has only happened four other times, although one of those times was 10 days ago.
Yeah I think Rizwan is definitely better, but interesting that they've got a quality player like Sarfraz in reserve as well. Also with some of the specialist batsmen I've seen Pakistan play over the last few years I can't help but wondering if both keepers should be playingKeeping a bit underrated I think. He didn't look the part as was always a bit fat and scruffy but can't remember him being a bad gloveman.
Batting was sound enough but not near rizwan level. Imo.
