Mohammed Siraj Rediscovers Bowling Rhythm on Australian Tour

After a challenging home Test season, Siraj credits advice from coaches and teammates for regaining confidence and form in Australia.

  • Mohammed Siraj struggled during India's home Test series against Bangladesh and New Zealand, taking only six wickets in four matches under spin-friendly conditions.
  • The Indian pacer sought guidance from former bowling coach Bharat Arun, who advised him to focus on enjoying his bowling rather than chasing wickets.
  • Siraj has shown improvement on the current Australian tour, taking five wickets in the Perth Test and performing well in the pink-ball warm-up match in Canberra.
  • Current bowling coach Morne Morkel and teammate Jasprit Bumrah have also encouraged Siraj to maintain consistency and embrace the pace-friendly Australian conditions.
  • With 18 wickets in four matches in Australia at an average of 25.27, Siraj is expected to play a key role in the upcoming day-night Test in Adelaide starting December 6.
