Sarfaraz Khan and Dhruv Jurel, the rising stars of the Indian cricket team recently shared insights into their journey from budding talents to representing India at the highest level, following their pivotal roles in India's 4-1 victory in the five-match Test series.

In a light-hearted moment during the conversation, a photo flashed on the screen capturing English batter, Ollie Pope facing Kuldeep Yadav, with a voice in the background predicting, "He will come out of his crease." True to the prediction, Kuldeep bowled a delivery that bamboozled the batter, resulting in a stumping just before lunch.

Amidst the banter on the India Today show, the host asked Jurel about the voice behind the wickets, speculating if he was the one anticipating the batter's move. However, Sarfaraz interjected, funnily claiming it was he who foresaw the batter's action.
