It's been an eventful week for 17-year-old Sarfaraz Khan. After procuring a No Objection Certificate on Tuesday from the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) to move to Uttar Pradesh for the forthcoming domestic season, yesterday the promising batsman was signed by the Professional Management Group (PMG) headed by cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar to look into his commercial dealings.

Although the PMG press release did not disclose the fee at which he was signed for, it is learnt that Sarfaraz's three-year deal is worth R1.5 crore. Sarfaraz caught everyone's attention during his maiden Indian Premier League season earlier this year with the Royal Challengers Bangalore, justifying his R50 lakh purse which he fetched at the auction.
