2019 was a rough year for former Pakistan cricket captain Sarfaraz Ahmed, to say the least. The 2017 Champions Trophy-winning skipper was sacked from Pakistan's captaincy in all formats and was not even picked in the squads for any of the three teams during their tour of Australia late last year. This made Sarfaraz Ahmed start working on his game by playing domestic cricket and focusing on his fitness. Now, Sarfaraz Ahmed is leading Quetta Gladiators in the Pakistan Super League (PSL), aiming to make a comeback into the Pakistan team.
