The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has not yet provided an official update on whether Siraj is actually injured or if it is just a minor niggle.
In a concerning update for fans, team India's frontline fast bowler Mohammed Siraj is reportedly facing an injury scare and may not participate in IND vs SL 1st T20I. According to RevSportz, the star pacer was seen receiving medical attention after being hit on his right leg with a ball during a practice session.
Siraj is expected to lead India's young pace bowling attack in IND vs SL T20Is and ODIs in absence of Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah. However, if he is injured, it could alter the team's plans.
