Mohammad Siraj stunned the Perth crowd on Sunday with a jaw-dropping effort, saving 5 runs against Australia in the first ODI. India struggled big time in the series opener as they managed just 136 runs after the game was reduced to 26 overs per side due to multiple rain interruptions. While the batters disappointed, Siraj’s insane efforts near the boundary line were one big positive for India in the game.
It was the 18 th over when Matthew Renshaw hammered Washington Sundar over for a six over long-off, but Siraj had other plans. The pacer leapt up to grab it with both hands high above his head. However, as he was falling backwards, he threw the ball back into the field of play while still in mid-air.
Look at the commitment of Siraj Bro balls like a work horse gives soul in fielding,
