How has Sarfaraz Khan changed? Despite a string of outstanding performances, the India batsman was overlooked for the trip to England, prompting him to deliver a clear message to the selection committee, BCCI, and its chairman, Ajit Agarkar. He has lost 17 kilograms and is unrecognizable. Sarfaraz has seen an amazing outcome from his weight-loss journey, which began a few months ago. Sarfaraz, who is frequently mocked for his physique and physique, has lost a lot of weight and is attempting to compete for a position in India's Test XI, which is in need of substitutes following the retirements of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.

Although Sarfaraz was a member of the Indian Test team for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, he was sadly unable to participate in any matches. Later, he was left out of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, and Sarfaraz made a conscious effort to lose weight and present a side of himself that had never been seen before. Kevin Pietersen and the rest of the online world have been captivated by Sarfaraz's metamorphosis. Pietersen had a question for Prithvi Shaw as he couldn't contain his excitement at seeing Sarfaraz's amazing metamorphosis. The former captain of England was stunned by how different Sarfaraz appeared.

"Young man, that was an outstanding effort!" My sincere congratulations; I have no doubt that it will result in improved and more reliable performance on the field. The effort you've put into prioritizing your life is fantastic! Would anyone be able to demonstrate this to Prithvi? It is possible! "Strong body, strong mind," Pietersen wrote on X.

Pietersen made the following statement:

During the previous year's home season, Sarfaraz made his final appearance for India in the Test series against New Zealand. Sarfaraz was let go after just a few more games, despite his outstanding 150 score in Bengaluru. The overlooked India batter Shaw has been coping with his own set of challenges. For the approaching domestic season, he will be representing Maharashtra after breaking ties with Mumbai.

The former India Under-19 World Cup-winning captain is also committed to regaining his fitness, Shaw said in a recent interview, despite having acquired a few negative habits in the company of some wrong people. Shaw had begun to put on weight by 2022, but it was in 2023 that he truly gained mass. As his career began to decline, disciplinary problems caused him to be kicked off the Mumbai Ranji Trophy squad. Shaw told News24 India that he would regain the same fitness and body that he had in 2018, when he won the ICC trophy and made his professional debut.

Shaw said, "Because it's raining these days, I mostly train inside, where I practice batting for 1 to 1.5 hours, and it also involves the regular drills. I'll be about the same size as I was in 2018 in a little more time. You may compare pictures from that year and notice the change.
