His first wicket in England’s second innings fell as Ben Docket. Siraj had caught him at the hands of Bumrah in the session on the fourth day. After dismissing Docket, Siraj became a little aggressive while celebrating the wicket. At the same time, he also hit Ben Docket.
Siraj was fined for this mistake, besides a demerit points were also added to his account, after which he has now become a total of 2 demerit points. This was Siraj’s second mistake in the last 24 months.

Siraj has taken 4 wickets for 116 runs in Lord’s Test. In this, he took 2 wickets for 85 runs in the first innings, while the remaining 2 wickets spent 31 runs in the second innings. As far as Lord’s Test is concerned, the matter is stuck on Fifty-FIFTI. England are looking for 6 wickets to win, while India has to score 135 runs.
England, batting first, scored 387 runs in the first innings. In response, India also scored 387 runs in the first innings.

Team India chased this target and scored 58 runs for 4 wickets by the end of the fourth day’s play.
