Indian assistant coach Ryan Deen on Thursday on Thursday praised the unwavering commitment of Mohammed Siri and the spirit of the lion and emphasized the need to carefully manage the workload of Pacer to ensure that he remains in state of state. Siraj, which was the basis in the Indian Red Ball line -up, tirelessly released three consecutive tests in the ongoing series. While his goal does not always have to reflect his efforts, ten believe that Siraj’s presence brings the advantage and energy to the Indian bowling attack that is difficult to quantify.
“We take it for granted how lucky we are that we have someone like that,” ten said. “I know it doesn’t always receive yields that you might expect from a quick pitch, but when it comes to the heart, it is like a lion. Every time it has a ball in your hand, you feel like something happens.”
Since the beginning of 2023, Siraj has played in 24 of Indian 27 test matches – more than any other Indian fast pitch. During this period, 569.4 overs bowed, the highest between Indians and only for Australian Pat Cummins (721.2) and Mitchell Starc (665.1) around the world. The numbers are proof of its durability, but also emphasize the physical requirements of its shoulders.
“It’s not someone who will ever avoid workload, which is all the more important for us to handle it carefully,” he added. “We have to make sure he’s fit enough to give the best, and that could mean he’ll pull him back, even if he is willing to do more.”
India still has to complete his bowling combination for the fifth and last test in Manchester. The left arm of Arshdeep Singh was in rivalry for a place in XI, but the injury suffered during the training has complicated matters. “We’ll call a combination closer to the match,” he said ten. “Especially with the situation Arshdeep – it was within, but now we will have to see how things are developing.”
The coach assistant also drew the parallels between Siraj’s unwavering work ethics and Ben Stokes, who bowed the heroic charm for England on the last day.
“Siraj is always ready to strengthen and go through it as well as Stokes. Often you often do not meet such an attitude – and sometimes it is up to us, leadership,” That’s enough, even if it rarely goes. “
Mohammed Siraj does not always have a Scorecard, but for India, the cheap engine remains their bowling attack – tireless, selfless and sharply committed. The challenge is now to protect this heart without getting the fire.
