Indian all-rounder Musheer Khan produces an incredible showing for Mumbai’s development side against Nottinghamshire’s second XI in the MCA’s Emerging Players tour of the UK.
Musheer, younger brother of Sarfaraz Khan, made a brilliant 123 off 149 deliveries to help Mumbai to a total of 448 runs, before claiming a six-wicket haul with his crafty left-arm spin.
Shaariq Sheikh dismissed the young Indian following his century, while the Indian side also had a ton coming from Manan Bhatt. Musheer’s efforts with the ball bundled out the home side for a first innings score of 210 before being asked to follow on by the touring side. Nottingham concluded Day 2 of the game at 90/3 in the second innings, leaving the side with a mountain to climb.

Musheer, who eclipsed the legendary Sachin Tendulkar’s record to become the youngest Mumbai batter to register a ton in the final of the Ranji Trophy last year to help his side clinch their 42nd title in the prestigious tournament, was sideline for a prolonged period following a car crash in September last year, but has recovered well to get back to his best as evidenced by his showing against the English county’s second string side.
