The rhythm of Gujarat Titans (GT) Mohammed Siraj received a lot of praise after his winning fate against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). After being released by RCB last year, the Mohammed Siraj pace returned to haunt his former team, taking 3/19 in front of a crowd of Chinnaswamy. The former drummer of India, Virender Sehwag, suggested that Siraj had a point to prove not only because it was released by RCB, but also because it was not chosen by India for the Champions Trophy.
“He kept his record with the new ball to Chinnaswamy. He only gave 12 or 13 points in the first three Overs. He could probably have been fourth at the same time, he could have taken another window. He swings the new ball, and yesterday, he also obtained the help of the counter. Bowler. I hope he continues with the same intensity and returns to the Indian team,” said Sehwag Spit.
After the match, Siraj revealed that he was a little nervous and emotional to the idea of facing RCB, that too in their own den.
“I was a little emotional because I played here for seven years in the red jersey,” said Siraj after being appointed game player. “Now, it’s a different color. I was a little nervous and a little emotional too. But as soon as I had the ball in my hand, I was full. I played regularly on matches, so I did not make the mistakes I was making. During the breakup, I focused on my bowling, on my fitness, and when I joined GT, I focused on Ashu Bhai and the ball. Added.
GT killed the target of 170 points graceful from the belligerent 73 * of Jos Buttler from 39 deliveries and finishing keys of Sherfane Rutherford in shape (30 * from 18 deliveries).
Even the RCB head coach Andy Flower said that Siraj was his head and shoulders above the others. He wished her all the “success” in the world while saying that the franchise is “happy” with the current team.
