FIFA, as well as football, is a world-renowned favorite. It is especially popular in India as an Esports where we can participate in football matches with controllers and keyboards. And here we have some of the best FIFA players in India - Saransh Jain.

Recently, an Indian FIFA pro player Saransh Jain has claimed the championship title in a FIFA 19 tournament in Maldives – King Of Games.

Saransh Jain set for the event through the qualifier hosted by Lets Game Now in India. He broke no sweat and quickly stomped all 4 qualifiers, securing the ticket to the Maldives. The Republic of Maldives is not too distant from India, making travel between the two countries an easy task.

However, going into the tournament, Saransh met with some problems. The Indian pro usually picks France National Team as his jersey but the tournament used Clubs only format. This meant his favorite team was not on the list and he had to make it with another team. Unfazed, Saransh Jain improvised and went for Juventus.
