Former Australia captain Mark Taylor has questioned Mohammad Siraj's celebration. The 60-year-old former captain said- 'Siraj has a habit of celebrating early wickets without waiting for the umpire's decision. His senior colleagues in Team India should talk to Siraj about this issue, because doing so would look bad.'
Taylor told Nine News – 'When Siraj thinks he has dismissed the batsman, he runs to his teammates to celebrate before the umpire's decision comes.' The ICC fined the Indian fast bowler 20% of his match fee for an aggressive celebration against Travis Head.
Taylor's whole thing…
As far as Mohammad Siraj is concerned, I want his senior teammates to talk to him. Not so much about what happened to Travis Head, but about the fact that when he thinks he's struck out a batter, he doesn't turn to look at the umpire's decision and starts celebrating straight away. I think it's not a good sight for him and the game. I love the spirit of it, I love the competitive nature of it, I love the fact that we have a really good series going on, but there's also the respect of the game that needs to be maintained. I think talking to senior players will help him understand this.
Former Australia batsman Simon Ketich told SEN Radio – Siraj's brain was not working
Siraj's brain didn't work for a while and the Indian fast bowler later repented. It's a shame Siraj didn't use his brain that time. This kind of behavior is not required in the game.
Siraj came into the limelight after an argument with Head Siraj has become the subject of debate after a brief argument with Head during the Adelaide Test. On 7 December, the second day of the pink ball Test match, Head hit Siraj for a six. Then Siraj bowled him on the very second ball.
After being dismissed for 140, Head had a few words for Siraj. At this Siraj motioned him to the dugout. Head said after the match that I was praising him. I just said 'well bold'. Also Siraj said that he is lying.
The brawl between Travis Head and Mohammad Siraj during the Adelaide Test became a topic of discussion.
