In the Oval Test, India had set a target of 374 runs in front of England. When the England team was chasing this target, Mohammad Siraj was seen apologizing to the famous Krishna in front of thousands of fans on one occasion. After all, why did Siraj have to do this? Actually, this matter is related to leaving a catch, which would not have to struggle much for the fourth wicket in the Oval Test. The picture of Siraj and Krishna is becoming very viral.
Why did Mohammad Siraj apologize?
This case is of the 35th over of England’s innings. The famous Krishna came to bowl and on the first ball of the over, Harry Brook hit an aerial shot, Mohammad Siraj, standing on the boundary, caught the catch. The ball was in Siraj’s hands, but while handling himself, his leg was touched by the boundary. Brook was batting at a score of just 19 at that time. This catch was overshadowed by Team India because Brook has completed the fifty in the Oval Test till this article was written.
On the other hand, there was a smile on the famous Krishna’s face that Siraj would catch a catch, but as soon as Siraj entered the boundary, the smile on Krishna’s face turned into disappointment. After that Siraj went to Krishna and both shook hands. This picture of him is becoming fiercely viral on social media.
