Mohammed Siraj: There are many players in cricket who get a chance in their national team very soon, but some are not able to make their place in the team despite consistently performing well. In this sequence, now there is such a player in India too, who is getting opportunities continuously.

Actually, this player got a chance to debut in Team India only because of the legendary batsman Virat Kohli and now he has been included in the team despite his consistently poor performance. This is none other than fast bowler Mohammed Siraj and he is currently struggling with his poor form.

Mohammed Siraj made his debut under the captaincy of Virat Kohli

When Siraj (Mohammed Siraj) made his debut for Team India, his performance was not very special at that time because Virat was the captain of the team at that time and that is why he got a chance in the team. Both these players play for the same team i.e. Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in IPL.

Siraj first debuted for the team in 2017 and that season he took 10 wickets in 6 matches in the IPL while giving away runs at an economy rate of around 10. However, his performance improved after making his debut in Test matches but now he is proving to be a flop once again.

Mohammed Siraj's poor performance continues against Sri Lanka

By the way, Siraj's (Mohammed Siraj) poor performance has been going on since IPL 2024 and he is seen struggling. This fast bowler did not perform well in the ICC T20 World Cup as well and now his same game is continuing in Sri Lanka as well.

Team India has played two T20 matches against Sri Lanka so far and Siraj's performance in these matches has not been very good. In the first match, he took 1 wicket while conceding 23 runs in 3 overs. Apart from this, in the second match, he conceded 27 runs in 3 overs and did not get any success. He is continuously proving to be expensive and even after this, he is a part of the playing eleven.

The T20 career of this fast bowler has not been very long so far, but he has played a total of 15 matches so far, in which Siraj (Mohammed Siraj) has taken 14 wickets while conceding runs at an economy of 8.
