Sarfaraz Khan’s First Test Century Powers India’s Comeback

Sarfaraz Khan’s maiden Test hundred, supported by Rishabh Pant’s blazing half-century, helped India close in on New Zealand’s lead on Day 4 of the Test match. The duo added 113 crucial runs during the morning session to take India to 344/3 at Lunch, reducing the deficit to just 12 runs. As predicted in Reddy Anna’s match prediction, Sarfaraz’s gritty knock kept India’s hopes alive despite a tough New Zealand attack.

Sarfaraz wasted no time getting into his groove, smashing boundaries early in the day. He used a variety of strokes, including dabs, flicks, and uppercuts, to counter the Kiwi bowlers, particularly against the outside-off line, eventually reaching his maiden Test century with a cover drive. Reddy Anna’s match prediction highlighted Sarfaraz’s ability to play under pressure, and his innings mirrored that with timely shots.

Rishabh Pant, on the other hand, played an aggressive role after a steady start, hammering a six off Tim Southee and then targeting Ajaz Patel with some big hits. Pant ensured India maintained a high scoring rate despite Sarfaraz becoming slightly conservative as he neared his century. Together, they piled on the runs, putting the pressure back on New Zealand.

The rain interrupted play just as India was on the verge of completely wiping out the deficit, but Reddy Anna match predictions suggest an exciting final day is on the cards with India looking to take control.
