Siraj and root collisionImage Credit Source: PTI
England’s tour for Team India’s star fast bowler Mohammad Siraj has been full of ups and downs. Sometimes he did not get lucky, sometimes he bowled amazing and after seeing his bowling many times it was difficult to say that he had played about 40 Test matches. But in one case, Siraj maintained continuity and that was his whole effort. He also had a competition and confrontation with England batsmen in the process of putting his full strength and retaining aggression. Due to one such collision, Siraj survived the big loss.
In fact, in the first innings of the Manchester Test match against England, the bowlers of Team India had to struggle a lot. England batsmen scored openly and did not give wickets to India. In such a situation, when an opportunity came, Siraj put full force. It happened that in the first session of the third day of the match, LBW appealed against Joe Root. This opportunity was made on Siraj’s ball, whose root was failing in an attempt to play the ball and the ball was on his pad.
Siraj’s hand fell from hand
In this innings of England, the Indian bowlers were able to trick the bat of English batsmen on very few occasions. In such a situation, as soon as this opportunity became, Siraj appealed loudly to LBW. He was so lost in the appeal that he collided with the route running from behind. Siraj’s attention was in the appeal, but due to this collision, the clock fell down from his wrist and fell down. Siraj did not pay attention to him then but as soon as his appeal was rejected, Siraj went and raised his watch and then discussed the review with captain Gill. However, Team India did not get any benefit even after the review and the route was completely survived.
Every effort for wicket waste
Now whether the clock of Siraj is broken or not, it is not clear at the moment. But the senior Indian bowler did not get success. Not only Siraj, but in the Manchester Test match, all Indian bowlers had to work hard in the first innings of England, but the England batsmen faced them without any trouble. Even in the first session of the third day, England did not lose any wicket, while Joe Root and Oli Pope completed their half -century and also shared a century partnership.
