Mohammed Siraj's heartwarming gesture wins hearts of Twitterati

11 Dec, 2020 By Editor

Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj's heartening response after Cameron Green suffered a blow to his head earned appreciation from netizens on social media platforms. 

The unfortunate incident happened when Jasprit Bumrah went hard against the back of a length delivery, which hit Cameron Green on the side of his head. 

Siraj, who was at the non-striker end, didn't waste any time and rushed to check on the Aussie youngster. 

Soon after, the 21-year-old left the field for further medical examination. The magnitude of the injury is unknown and an update on his condition is expected later this evening. 

The 71-run stand between the two pacers helped India post 194 on the board. While Jasprit Bumrah remained unbeaten on 55, Mohammed Siraj scored a gritty 22 off 34 balls. 

Brief scores

India: 194-10 in 48.3 overs [Jasprit Bumrah - 55*, S Gill - 43, P Shaw - 40, Siraj - 22; J Wildermuth- 3/13, S Abbott 3/46]
