 <Grid>
     <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
         <ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
         <ColumnDefinition Width="100" />
     </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

     <syncfusion:SfDataGrid x:Name="sfGrid"
                            Grid.Column="0"
                            VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Never"
                            FrozenColumnCount="1"
                            GridLinesVisibility="Both"
                            HeaderGridLinesVisibility="Both"
                            ColumnWidthMode="Auto"
                            AutoGeneratingColumn="sfGrid1_AutoGeneratingColumn"
                            ItemsSource="{Binding Employees}">

     </syncfusion:SfDataGrid>
     <syncfusion:SfDataGrid x:Name="sfGrid1"
                            Grid.Column="1"
                            GridLinesVisibility="Both"
                            HeaderGridLinesVisibility="Both"
                            ColumnWidthMode="Auto"
                            AutoGenerateColumnsMode="None"
                            ItemsSource="{Binding Employees}">

         <syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
             <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="EmployeeID"
                                            Format="#"
                                            HeaderText="Employee ID" />
         </syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>

     </syncfusion:SfDataGrid> 
 </Grid>

Xaml.cs

    public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
    {
        public MainPage()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            sfGrid.GetVisualContainer().ScrollOwner.Scrolled += ScrollOwner_Scrolled;
            sfGrid1.GetVisualContainer().ScrollOwner.Scrolled += ScrollOwner_Scrolled1;
        }

        private async void ScrollOwner_Scrolled(object? sender, ScrolledEventArgs e)
        {
            var scrollView = sfGrid1.GetVisualContainer().ScrollOwner;
            if (scrollView != null)
            {
                await scrollView.ScrollToAsync(scrollView.ScrollX, e.ScrollY, false);
            }
        }

        private async void ScrollOwner_Scrolled1(object? sender, ScrolledEventArgs e)
        {
            var scrollView = sfGrid.GetVisualContainer().ScrollOwner;
            if (scrollView != null)
            {
                await scrollView.ScrollToAsync(scrollView.ScrollX, e.ScrollY, false);
            }
        }

        private void sfGrid1_AutoGeneratingColumn(object sender, DataGridAutoGeneratingColumnEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Column.MappingName == "EmployeeID")
            {
                e.Cancel = true;
            }
        }
    }
