‘Kohli goes to him quite a bit to bring some energy’: Ex-NZ captain

On Monday, in India’s 1-0 victory over New Zealand in the series, former New Zealand captain Daniel Vettori gave a high praise to Indian walker Mohammed Siraj.

In a show on ESPNCricinfo, Vettori analyzed India’s record of 372 runs at the Wankhede Stadium in the second test, supporting his claim that Siraj is “special” because he brings a lot of energy, but not Let it affect his bowling. “Siraj is special. Every time he participates in a test match, something happens. (Virat) Kohli walks up to him and brings some energy, and his pace remains the same. He runs hard and does it from the fast bowler. Everything you want to do,” Vittori said.

He then went on to add that he would not take anything from veteran Ishant Sharma, while insisting that Siraj would be the obvious choice for a trip to South Africa. “This is not to reduce Ishant Sharma’s anything, but I just think the timing is right for people like Siraj to come in and provide something special for the Indian bowling lineup under South African conditions,” Vettori concluded.

So far, Siraj has had an unparalleled impact in his fledgling testing career. In 10 innings, 33 wickets were scored with an average strike rate of 27.69 and 53.8.

He also helped India win a big victory in Mumbai. Missed the first test due to the split of the webbing on his hand, and was injured in the T20I series against the Black Caps. Siraj used all the gun fire to suppress the New Zealander’s batsman in the first game. He returned with a 3/19 stat after 4 rounds, making his opponent’s highest ranking uneasy.
