Mohammed Siraj is a true captain’s bowler. He always does what the captain asks of him and delivers for his team with sheer determination and passion. The new entrant in the Indian team is only 7 matches old but has made a great case for himself in a short period of time. The fast bowler made waves when he picked a five-wicket haul against Australia in the 2020 edition of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
Mohammed Siraj likes to do the talking with the ball but he is never behind when it comes to do the talking with the mouth. In the ongoing Test series against England, Siraj was seen having a banter with the English players. The Indian team doesn’t only have to face the English team, but even the English fans are giving the Indian players a hard time.
Mohammed Siraj trolls the English fans
The English fans have constantly been chatty against the Indian players. The same was seen on the opening day of the third Test match at Headingley. Team India had a dismal day as they were bundled up by the England bowlers at a paltry 78. The Indian bowlers looked ineffective as the English openers Haseeb Hameed and Rory Burns scored 120 runs by the end of the day’s play.
The English fans got an opportunity to troll the Indian players and they were at it. The English fans tried to bully Mohammed Siraj but he savagely replied to them by reminding them that India is 1-0 up in the series. Later, it was revealed that some of the English fans even threw a plastic ball at Mohammed Siraj which irked the Indian skipper Virat Kohli.

As for the match, the England team is in the driving seat as they lead by 42 runs with all 10 wickets in hand. The Indian bowlers will have to step up and produce some miraculous spells if they want to wrap up the English batsmen quickly on Day 2.
