Sarkhan Vol’s first ability affects only creatures you control when that ability resolves.
wotc1 Oct 2008
You may target any creature with the second ability, not just a creature an opponent controls. If you target a creature you already control, you’ll gain control of it (which will usually have no visible effect), it’ll untap, and it’ll gain haste until end of turn.
