Mohammad Siraj performed brilliantly in the 5 -match Test series against England, taking 23 wickets. Due to his fatal bowling, England lost in the 5th Test, which managed to finish the India series on a 2–2 draw. Now India will play in the Asia Cup after a month, which is going to start from 9 September. The big question is whether Siraj will play in the Asia Cup or not? He has played in only 1 T20 series after Gautam Gambhir’s head coach.
The Asia Cup will be in 2025 UAE, this tournament played in T20 format will run from 9 September to 28 September. Suspense remains intact on the playing of Mohammad Siraj. In Tests and ODIs, the place of Siraj is considered to be confirmed, but the path of T20 has not been easy for him.
Mohammad Siraj played the last international T20 match in July 2024. After this, Team India played T20 series against Bangladesh, South Africa and England, but Siraj did not get a chance.
Will Mohammad Siraj play in Asia Cup or not?
Gautam Gambhir was appointed the head coach of the Indian team in July 2024, after which Siraj has played only one T20 series. Gambhir has given more emphasis on feeding young players. The head coach’s strategy has been to prepare separate teams for all three formats (T20, test and ODI), in which it is seen that instead of Siraj, it is confirmed in ODIs and Tests but not in T20. India have played the last 12 T20 matches without Siraj. So the question is whether Siraj Head Coach Gautam Gambhir is not the first choice for T20 format?
