DSP Siraj breathes hearth! Sends Ben Stokes for a duck, leaves Joe Root fuming – WATCH | Cricket News
NEW DELHI: Mohammed Siraj struck twice in two balls — together with the prized wicket of England captain Ben Stokes for a golden duck — as India tightened their grip on Day 3 of the second Test at Edgbaston on Friday.Bowling his first over of the day, Siraj first dismissed Joe Root for 22. The supply, angled down the leg aspect, tempted Root into a flick towards nice leg. Instead, the ball brushed his glove, and Rishabh Pant made no mistake behind the stumps. A visibly pissed off Root walked off shaking his head.Off the very subsequent ball, Siraj produced a brute of a supply to ship Stokes packing for a first-ball duck. The ball, pitched on a brief-of-a-length, reared up sharply and caught Stokes abruptly. The England skipper was caught in a tangle, managed solely a skinny edge, and Pant claimed his second catch in two balls.Siraj let loose a roar, fists pumping in celebration, because the Indian gamers surrounded him in jubilation.
India want to degree the 5-match collection after dropping the opening Test at Headingley in Leeds by 5 wickets. England at the moment lead the collection 1-0.
