Mumbai chief selector Rajesh Pawar is confident that batter Sarfaraz Khan will make the most of his opportunity after the Ajit Agarkar-led national selection committee picked him to replace the injured Sai Sudharsan for the upcoming two-Test series against Sri Lanka, beginning at Galle on August 15.

Sarfaraz, 28, has represented the country in six Tests, scoring 371 runs so far, including one century and three half-tons. He played his last Test against New Zealand at the Wankhede Stadium in 2024.
