Former cricketer Wasim Jaffer has given a big reaction to the Indian team’s fast bowler Mohammad Siraj. He has said that Mohammad Siraj should be given a chance as a replacement for Jasprit Bumrah in the T20 World Cup team. Wasim Jaffer is very impressed with the way Siraj recently bowled in the ODI series against South Africa.
There is a lot of discussion these days about the replacement of Jasprit Bumrah. Bumrah is out of the T20 World Cup and in such a situation, the question before the team management is who should be given a place in the World Cup squad as a replacement. Mohammed Shami is considered to be at the fore in this race, but by bowling tremendously against South Africa, Mohammed Siraj has also made himself a strong contender. Mohammad Siraj bowled tremendously in the South Africa series. He took five wickets in three matches and was adjudged the Player of the Series. Apart from the wicket, Siraj’s economy rate was also very good.
Siraj is bowling consistently well – Wasim Jaffer
This is the reason why everyone is now talking about including him in the T20 World Cup team. During a conversation on ESPN Cricinfo, Wasim Jaffer said, ‘You have to think about Siraj because he is playing matches continuously. He has done well in whatever opportunities he has got. He has picked up wickets and looks very dangerous. He is the kind of bowler you would always love to bowl to as a captain.
No player’s name has been announced yet as a replacement for Bumrah. Mohammad Siraj is also considered ahead in this race.
