Mohammad Siraj told Karthik’s tongue black.
Siraj did not like Dinesh Karthik’s talk.
New Delhi: Team India has taken a 2-0 lead in the Border Gavaskar Trophy. The third Test match will be played in Indore from 1 March. Jasprit Bumrah is running out of the series due to injury. To some extent, his shortcomings are being fulfilled by Mohammad Siraj. He has recently come at number 1 in the ODI rankings. Team India’s veteran wicket-keeper batsman Dinesh Karthik has shared an anecdote about Mohammad Siraj’s debut match.
Recalling the last match of the T20 series against New Zealand played in the year 2017, Karthik said during an interview, “Siraj was very scared and scared before his debut. He could not even sleep. When he was selected, I felt that he was not fully prepared. When he came to play, I told him that Colin Munro is going to kill you. You wait and see.”
Karthik further said, “After this Siraj told me that no, I will get him out.. But in that match, Munro had scored a brilliant century. Remembering this incident, Siraj tells me even today that you had a black tongue. Which ended my career even before it started.
Gave 53 runs in 4 overs
Please tell that Siraj played against New Zealand in T20 in the year 2017 under the leadership of Virat. Siraj proved to be very expensive in his debut. He had looted 53 runs by taking 1 wicket in 4 overs. Colin Munro scored a century in this match.
