On the second day of the third Test match against England, Team India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah bowled brilliantly. He took the first innings of the hosts for 387 runs with five wickets. This innings of England could have ended even before, if the Indian players had not left some catches. Team India’s fast bowler Mohammad Siraj looked very angry on the poor fielding of fellow players. He put a player’s class during the live match. Its video is becoming increasingly viral on social media. Jamie Smith’s catch was missed on a ball of Siraj, due to which he looked quite disappointed.
Whose class did Siraj hold?
Jasprit Bumrah was taking wickets from one end during England’s first innings at Lord’s. At the same time, Mohammad Siraj was constantly under pressure on the batsmen from the other end. During this, KL Rahul left the catch of Jamie Smith off his ball. Due to which Siraj looked very disappointed. Smith was playing only 5 runs at that time. After this, he played a brilliant innings of 51 runs.
After this, wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurail could not catch a ball of Siraj properly. Siraj got upset on this. During this, he said, “Catch man, focus on fielding”. This video of him is becoming quite viral. During this time, former cricketers Sanjay Manjrekar and Varun Aaron, who are commenting, gave the reason for Siraj’s displeasure. He said that Siraj Dhruv wanted to say something to Jurail, but he could not say.
What did the commentator say?
Former fast bowler Varun Aaron, who is commenting during the match, said that Siraj is bowling very well. On his ball, KL Rahul and Dhruv Jurail have left the catch, which makes him look upset. During this, Sanjay Manjrekar said that both the catches had come towards the fielder very fast, so he might not be caught. He said that Indian players are spending their lives in fielding, but are leaving the catch.
Siraj took two wickets
Mohammad Siraj, who took 6 wickets in the first innings of Edgbaston Test match, was also bowling brilliantly this match, but the fielders did not support him. In the Lord’s Test match, Siraj took two wickets for 23.3 overs 85 runs in England’s first innings. He sent Bordon Cars and Jamie Smith to the pavilion.
