New Delhi: Team India defeated hosts England by 151 runs in the India vs England 2nd Test at Lord's to take a 1-0 lead in the Ind vs Eng five-match Test series. On Day 5 of the pulsating Lord's Test, Mohammad Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah performed amazingly with the ball as well as with the bat.
Both bowlers first stitched an unbroken partnership of 89 runs for the ninth wicket and then rattled the English batsmen with the ball. Mohammed Siraj contributed significantly to India's victory by taking four wickets each in both the innings of the Lord's Test. After India's third win so far at Lord's ground, Siraj posted some pictures on his official Instagram handle.
In the caption of his post on social media, Siraj wrote: "MAGIC is believing in yourself. If you can make that happen, you can make anything happen...What a win, total team effort." In the photo, Siraj can be seen running in joy after taking a wicket.
As soon Siraj's pic went viral, Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh was one among many who congratulated the speedster for his phenomenal outing in the Ind vs Eng Lord's Test. The Bajiro Mastani actor labelled him a ‘Phenom’.
“They did (play a crucial role). Both of them are what you call low-profile players and not high-profile players. They don’t get the attention that some others do. It may be because of the style of play or whatever but they are invaluable to the team and, they brought all their experience to play,” Gavaskar told Sony Sports after India’s phenomenal win over England in Ind vs Eng Lord’s Test.
