Mohammed Siraj (PC: Twitter)
Mohammed Siraj, once a regular member of India’s Test XI, yielded paltry returns from his last two Test tours. The speedster was part of the touring Indian party which suffered successive Test defeats in South Africa earlier this year.
Moreover, Siraj also conceded 98 runs off his 15 wicketless overs at the rescheduled fifth Test in England. The 28-year-old last represented the Indian side in Zimbabwe back in August. Since then, he has been ignored for the 2022 Asia Cup and also missed the home series against Australia prior to the T20I World Cup.
The speed demon, however, recently took up a County assignment in England for Warwickshire. In his first and only match for the club thus far, the cricketer has impressed one-and-all through a six-wicket match haul, including a five-fer in the first innings.
Former Indian bowling coach Bharat Arun is of the opinion that Siraj’s Warwickshire stint will be handy for the speedster, if he is looking for a way back to the national side.
