Gavaskar Calls For Siraj To Be Dropped, Says 'Be Brutally Upfront' With Him
Border Gavaskar Trophy: Legendary batter Sunil Gavaskar shared a brutally honest review of the underperforming pacer Mohammed Siraj and called for the left-arm pacer to be dropped from the Indian side after a string of poor outings in the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy series.
Siraj, who was a vital cog in the 2021 Border-Gavaskar Trophy series win, has not been up to the mark in the ongoing series, having taken 13 wickets in seven innings and not being fierce enough with the new ball, causing extra burden on Jasprit Bumrah’s shoulders.
Gavaskar believes the right-arm quick needs to be told he is being dropped rather than being rested. "I think Siraj, perhaps, needs a little bit of a break. In the sense, I am not saying a break, he needs to be told that he is left out of the team for non-performance. There has to be a situation where you can’t beat around the bush.
