Indian batter Sarfaraz Khan has spoken candidly about the toll of being repeatedly passed over for national team selection, according to Yahoo Sports. He admitted to moments of doubt about why he should keep putting in early morning training sessions when chances at the top level have not come his way.
Despite the frustration, Sarfaraz said his drive to keep improving has not faded, crediting his father's steady support for keeping him focused on cricket rather than giving up on his international ambitions.
The comments shed light on the mental grind faced by domestic stars who continue to produce despite being overlooked for India selection, a familiar struggle for many talented cricketers fighting for a limited number of spots.
