Discipline, Diet, And Dedication: Here's How Sarfaraz Khan Lost 17 Kgs

News184 days ago
Cricketer Sarfaraz Khan left his fans shocked when he shared his dramatic weight loss transformation picture on his Instagram Stories.
After being sidelined from India's tour of England, cricketer Sarfaraz Khan turned his setback into serious self-work, dropping 17 kilos in just a few months. The 27-year-old, known for his explosive domestic form, has long faced criticism for his fitness despite his cricketing potential. Now, his dramatic weight loss transformation is capturing attention far beyond the pitch.
Sarfaraz may have missed a place in the squad for the England Tests, but he's channelled that disappointment into redefining his relationship with health and fitness. His new, leaner look, shared via Instagram stories, has not only stunned fans but has also inspired a wave of appreciation for his discipline.
Take a look at Sarfaraz Khan's 17 Kgs weight loss picture here.
From Cheat Days to Clean Eating
Behind the scenes of this transformation is a carefully designed nutritional overhaul. In an interview earlier this year, Sarfaraz's father and coach, Naushad Khan, revealed the family's collective commitment to a cleaner diet.
'We stopped having roti, rice, sugar, flour, and anything bakery-related," Naushad shared in an earlier conversation with Hindustan Times. 'Our meals now include grilled fish, chicken, boiled eggs, fresh salads, broccoli, cucumber, and avocados. We've even switched to green tea and green coffee. It's been 1.5 months of this strict routine."
The shift wasn't temporary. It reflects a long-term vision to improve energy levels, muscle recovery, and overall well-being, all of which are crucial for elite performance.
Though his Test debut was delayed, Sarfaraz's commitment off the field could make all the difference moving forward. In modern cricket, fitness is no longer optional; it's as essential as form. And Sarfaraz seems to be ticking both boxes now.
About Sarfaraz Khan
Born in Mumbai in 1997, Sarfaraz first gained national attention during the U-19 World Cup and went on to become one of the most consistent run-scorers in the Ranji Trophy. A prolific talent in domestic cricket, he represents Mumbai and has made a mark with consistent performances over the years. In the Indian Premier League (IPL), he has played for franchises including Delhi Capitals, Punjab Kings, and Royal Challengers Bangalore.

'Joe Root Will Be Cursed!': Bold Prediction As Stunning Stat Claims England Star Will Surpass Sachin Tendulkar

Joe Root is inching closer to becoming Test cricket's leading run-getter and it's being predicted that nobody will be able to challenge his legacy. Joe Root has been predicted to become Test cricket's all-time leading run-getter and judging from the current trend, it has been claimed that his legacy will remain unchallenged. India legend Sachin Tendulkar currently holds the record for having scored the most runs in Test cricket history with 15,921 runs from 200 games. Root, who is 34, has taken his tally to 13270 and should he manage to maintain his current form and level of fitness, can even surpass Tendulkar. Root, a former England captain, is right now fifth on the list with Rahul Dravid (13,288), Jacques Kallis (13,289), and Ricky Ponting (13,378) ahead of him. Former India head coach Ravi Shastri feels that Root has four year of cricket ahead of him and will have accumulated 19,000 Test runs by the time he retires. 'Look at his (Root) age," Shastri said while commentating for Sky Sports during the second day of the 4th Test between India and England currently underway in Manchester. 'Look at the number of matches. He's played 157 (Tests). So you would imagine he would go past three (players) ahead of him in almost three Test matches." 'And then he's got about 40 Test matches. Sachin has played 200 Tests. Root has played 160 (157). He's still young. He has four years of cricket ahead of him. And what will separate him and Tendulkar will be around 3,000 runs. When you're hot, you're hot. In the meantime, he has age on his side," he added. Former England captain Michael Atherton, who was also on air, joined the conversation revealing that Sky Sports statistician Benedict Bermange has informed him that Root has 60.28% chance of breaking Tendulkar's record. 'Benedict reliably informed me that he's got a 60.28% chance of beating Sachin Tendulkar. I don't know how he worked that out," Atherton said. Shastri chimed in. 'I tell you that it won't be music to the ears of the Indians. It's just coming about to bedtime in India, and you've given us a stat – 60.28," he quipped. 'He'll be cursed. Millions of homes around Mumbai right now," added Atherton. Root's Legacy Will Be Unchallenged Atherton then made a bold prediction: If and once Root breaks the record, it's unlikely that anyone will surpass that since the interest in Test cricket continues to diminish. 'Wherever Joe Root finishes, say, for example, he went past Sachin. I'm not so sure anybody will go past that just because of the nature of the way the game is going. People will play fewer Test matches, I would imagine, in the years to come," Atherton said. Shastri agreed and said it will act as a fuel. '…that's what's going to drive him. He knows that. He will know that more than anybody else. The way the game is going, the three formats of the game," Shastri said. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Star boxer Nikhat Zareen and Tokyo Olympics bronze medallist Lovlina Borgohain were on Thursday named in India's team for the World Championships, scheduled to take place in Liverpool in September. The 20-member team was finalised after a week-long assessment at the National Institute of Sports in Patiala.

The men's team includes Asian Games bronze medallist Narender Berwal (90+ kg) and two-time World Cup winners Hitesh Gulia (70kg) and Abhinash Jamwal (65kg), among others.
