Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer has made a strong pitch for pace bowler Mohammed Siraj to be included in the side for the second Test against New Zealand beginning at the Wankhede Stadium here from December 3, saying that he should come in place of Ishant Sharma.

Ishant went wicket-less in the opening Test at Green Park in Kanpur, with the lanky bowler unable to make an impact in the 22 overs he bowled in the drawn Test.
