“’We know that you are really good with your inswingers. But to keep the batsmen guessing, you should be equally good with the outswingers.’ That’s what I have been working really hard and immensely pleased with the Lord’s spell,” Siraj said.
Whereas Siraj was the star performer at Lord’s. He might not duplicate his victory within the taking after Tests. Siraj looked a bit tired at Leeds and The Oval. Indicating on the England tour, the Hyderabad cricketer calls it a great experience. Siraj added that bowling with the senior pacers in the team was a big learning twist.
“I am glad that I could repose the faith of my captain Virat Bhai, head coach Ravi Shastri, the support staff, and the entire team. Definitely, bowling in tandem with big names like Shami Bhai, Ishant Bhai, and Jasprit bhai is a huge learning curve for me. They were so supportive and always came up with invaluable tips to keep improving my bowling,” Siraj said.
