Mohammed Siraj: “Going to the gym…” Mohammed Siraj breaks silence on ICC fine on Travis Head controversy


New Delhi:

Mohammed Siraj On ICC Punishment For Travis Head Send-Off: Indian fast bowler Mohammed Siraj was accused of aggressive celebration after dismissing Australian batsman Travis Head during the second Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the Adelaide Oval. On the second day of the Test played with the pink ball, Siraj dismissed Head with a brilliant in-swinging yorker on the fourth ball of the 82nd over and the fast bowler violated the spirit of the game by aggressively gesturing back towards the dressing room. There was an argument between the two for some time, but when Siraj came to bat during India’s second innings, both of them made up on the field.

Despite this, whenever Siraj was fielding in the deep or came to bowl, the Adelaide crowd booed continuously, to express their displeasure at his behavior with Head, who was named player of the match for his brilliant 140. are. Not only this, many veterans criticized Siraj for his behaviour. Apart from this, both Siraj and Head were punished by ICC and both were fined match fees.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) said on Monday that Siraj was punished after being found guilty of breaching Article 2.5 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which prohibits “use of language, actions or gestures “Relates to behavior which humiliates a batsman when he is out or which may cause an aggressive reaction.”

But it seems that Siraj has left behind the incident with Travis Head. Ahead of the third Test in Brisbane, which starts on December 14, Siraj has reacted positively to the fine imposed on him. When Siraj was asked about this incident, he said, “Yes man, it’s all good.” According to the report of Australian media outlet Sydney Morning Herald, when Siraj was asked about the fine whether he was worried about it, he said, “I am going to the gym now.” Let us tell you, not only Siraj and Head have been fined 20 percent of the match fee but also one demerit point has been given in the account of both of them.

After India’s defeat in Adelaide, the series is tied at 1-1 and now the focus of the fans is on the third Test of the series to be held at the prestigious Gabba in Brisbane. The five-Test Border-Gavaskar Trophy series is tied at 1-1. This series will decide whether India will make it to the final of the ICC World Test Championship or not. Australia made a brilliant comeback after a crushing defeat of 295 runs in the first test. In the second ‘pink ball’ Test in Adelaide, Australia obliterated India and eventually won by 10 wickets. Siraj is the fourth highest wicket taker in the series so far, having taken nine wickets at an average of less than 20.
