Musheer Khan Earns Ian Bishop’s Praise After Duleep Trophy Century

Musheer Khan has made headlines after a stunning innings of 181 for India B in the Duleep Trophy, surpassing Sachin Tendulkar’s debut score in the tournament. Batting at a time when his team was reeling at 94/7 against India A, Musheer produced a knock to remember, leading his side to a formidable total of 321. The 19-year-old’s resilience and skill in the middle earned him the third-highest score by a debutant in Duleep Trophy history, trailing only Baba Aparajith’s 212 and Yash Dhull’s 193.

Musheer’s remarkable innings, which included 16 fours and five sixes, broke Tendulkar’s long-standing record of 159 on debut in the 1991 Duleep Trophy. He combined with Navdeep Saini for a 205-run partnership for the eighth wicket, frustrating India A’s bowlers, including captain Shubman Gill.

The cricket fraternity reacted with admiration for Musheer’s innings. Indian T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav expressed his joy on social media, praising Musheer’s dedication and daily practice.

Musheer’s form has been on the rise since his impressive performances earlier this year, including being India’s second-highest run-scorer in the Under-19 World Cup. His double century in the Ranji Trophy quarter-final against Baroda further cemented his status as one of India’s rising stars.

With Musheer’s stock continuing to rise, his performance in the Duleep Trophy will be remembered as a crucial milestone in his young career.
