MUMBAI: Driving Ninad Rathva to longoff for a single, Musheer Khan, batting on 128 overnight, celebrated floating on ‘Cloud 200,’ raising both is hands up in the air, looking towards his father-cum-coach Naushad Khan, who was applauding his son’s major milestone at the Mumbai Cricket Association’s ground in BKC.
Consuming 350 balls and stroking 18 fours to convert his first First-Class century into a double century in Mumbai’s Ranji Trophy quarter-final against Baroda, the 18-year-old on Saturday proved that he had the same penchant for scoring ‘daddy hundreds’ that his elder brother, India’s Test batsman Sarfaraz Khan has in red-ball cricket.
