May be because Siraj is used as a freebie in presence of Bumrah.Nothing to do with that. Why would one bowler influence other bowler. May be he is trying to take more responsibility. Bumrah didn't ask him to bowl like spray gun in Australia, first test.
He is bowling in tandem with Bumrah. How is he used as freebie. He conceded 19 runs in the first 2 overs at Leeds where Bumrah was unplayable. He was spraying all over.May be because Siraj is used as a freebie in presence of Bumrah.
In 1st Test he bowled 27 overs while in this Test he bowled 19.3 overs in 1st Innings..So in absence of Bumrah he gets the treatment what Bumrah gets...and is not used as a useless tool with no care
Stats are in front of you, I didn't concoct them...Also he is the bowler who has bowled the most overs for India since 2022.He is bowling in tandem with Bumrah. How is he used as freebie. He conceded 19 runs in the first 2 overs at Leeds where Bumrah was unplayable. He was spraying all over.
You can't blame Bumrah for that lol Siraj probably has to do the same he does when he is bowling alone. He actually bowled poorly in the entire series in Australia. Also in the first innings at Leeds he bowled poorly. In the 2nd innings he bowled well. He is a rhythm bowler. When he is in rhythm with or without Bumrah he will make things happen. When he is not in rhythm he sucks. That is why his stats are mixedStats are in front of you, I didn't concoct them...Also he is the bowler who has bowled the most overs for India since 2022.

If he wants to be a rhythm bowler then do bharatanattiyyumYou can't blame Bumrah for that lol Siraj probably has to do the same he does when he is bowling alone.

Like Andrew CaddickSiraj is inconsistent, when he is on song, he is a world class unplayable bowler but when he bowls badly he is very ordinary
Sorry but this is a nonsensical take. What treatment are you talking about ?May be because Siraj is used as a freebie in presence of Bumrah.

OK and what is this supposed to prove ?You are not aware of anything then

He also needs work load management and is not a bot who could be employed all the time recklessly...and that affect his performance tooOK and what is this supposed to prove ?

The thing is when Bumrah is absent, Siraj gets to bowl the new ball more often...also he isn't forced to bowl during the rough patches of the day just to wear down the opposition and control the flow of runs.What is your thread title and what are you trying to prove now?
Your thread implies that Bumrah's presence is impacting Siraj's performance.
Now you are saying it's the extra workload affecting Siraj's performance.
If Bumrah ia absent then Siraj's workload will naturally be higher and it would appear that the higher workload is benefiting Siraj.
Troll thread zaroor banaiye but try not to contradict yourself in your own troll thread![]()
OK. Bumrah should retire so that Siraj can shine . Got the gist of your argument.The thing is when Bumrah is absent, Siraj gets to bowl the new ball more often...also he isn't forced to bowl during the rough patches of the day just to wear down the opposition and control the flow of runs.
Just recall, Siraj's fifer majority of the time results in India's triumph, Be it in Gabba, Egbaston.... This clearly shows he shines better in his absence and with more flexibility and freedom
Nope, he should get the Bumrah treatment...It's not Wasim and Waqar pair but Shoaib Akhtar needed to be pampered too.OK. Bumrah should retire so that Siraj can shine . Got the gist of your argument.
Bumrah in cricket section is what Modi is in Time Pass for OP. He opens multiple threads on them out of insecurity.Another thread on Bumrah, after all he gave sleepless night to the certain can base![]()
Siraj was never considered a strike bowler. Bumrah is. Strike bowlers always bowl slightly less than main bowlers. BEsides Siraj play a lot more tests as he had injury issues.You are not aware of anything then

Not sure what extra treatment Bumrah gets. If anything Bumrah was overworked due to poor show from Siraj. BUmrah was treated worse when he bowled with Siraj. Shami and Ishant were much better in complementing Bumrah.Nope, he should get the Bumrah treatment...It's not Wasim and Waqar pair but Shoaib Akhtar needed to be pampered too.

You guys need to think about it objectively, why Siraj steps up in his absence....You all criticize him for spraying in Australia but have you forgotten his bowling in the 5th Test.Not sure what extra treatment Bumrah gets. If anything Bumrah was overworked due to poor show from Siraj. BUmrah was treated worse when he bowled with Siraj. Shami and Ishant were much better in complementing Bumrah.
Siraj doesnt swing the ball as much as Arshadeep. So, there is no comparison with Bumrah.You guys need to think about it objectively, why Siraj steps up in his absence....You all criticize him for spraying in Australia but have you forgotten his bowling in the 5th Test.
He is a new ball bowler who I bet, won't get any chance even in the upcoming Lord's Test as he would be the third option with Akashdeep taking his role.
Siraj never picked up injuries. Bumrah already went absent for a long period due to injury. This is second time. First injury was career breaking. It is a miracle he came back and did well. Now again India played like 10 tests in 3 months. Then IPL. Things got worse at SCG. So he went out. This is 2024 stat. Bumrah clearly bowled atleast 60 overs more than Siraj in the same amount of Tests. WHo do you think that needs be handled in cotton wool? Siraj or Bumrah here?Majority of you guys not getting my point, he needs rest too, he needs workload management too, and he can't be forced to bowl just to wear down opposition. He has the potential and can be better utilized
Siraj is no machine too, may be the appropriate parable here is keep driving a car as it hasn't breakdown yet like the big one in garage.Siraj never picked up injuries.

If he is injured like Mohd Shami he will be given the same treatment. Look at Shami. He got permanent rest as he could not get even to 30% of his ceiling after returning from injury. DIdn't get picked. Bumrah is once in a generation fast bowler. Siraj is not. There were many times people wanted him out. He should be thankful that he is getting picked in every series. Instead of India using Bumrah as a strike force they used him as a work horse thanks to inspid performances of Siraj from time to time.Siraj is no machine too, may be the appropriate parable here is keep driving a car as it hasn't breakdown yet like the big one in garage.
Siraj and Bhumrah are both overrated. Shami was a good bowler and pressure player.
Now I know it very well he can't ever succeed for India, as long as fans and selectors will see him the way you explainedIf he is injured like Mohd Shami he will be given the same treatment.

Akash was better bowler by far on either side in the 2nd test.Are you seriously saying Siraj was the best bowler in the 2nd test. It was Akash that took out main batsmen with peaches after peach. Sure siraj mopped up the tail and took out crawley. Without Akash there is no way he would have been good.
Akash bowled very well but Siraj had a big contribution. He took out Crawley, Root and Stokes in the first innings and polishing the tail quickly too probably stopped Jamie Smith adding 50 more runs.Are you seriously saying Siraj was the best bowler in the 2nd test.
