Siraj’s trick worked… all the work was done within 5 balls

New Delhi. Indian cricket team’s fast bowler Mohammad Siraj’s trick worked. The third test match between India and Australia is being played at Gabba, Brisbane. On the second day of the Test match, Siraj used a trick against Australian batsman Marnus Labuschagne and it worked. Nitish Reddy took advantage of this trick of Siraj. Nitish completed the work of Labuschagne by getting him/her caught by Virat Kohli in the very next over. The pair of Labuschagne and Steve Smith was looking dangerous, when Siraj broke Labuschagne’s concentration by exchanging the bails. After this, Labuschagne could not stay at the crease for long. he/she had to return to the pavilion soon.

Mohammed Siraj brought the 33rd over of the Australian innings. On the very first ball of the over, Siraj appealed for LBW against Labuschagne but the umpire rejected it. No runs were scored on the second ball. After this Siraj went to the strike end and changed the bails. When Siraj started changing the bails, one of the bails fell down. After this, Labuschagne picked up the bails and placed it in the same position as before. In the language of cricket, you call it a trick. When the wickets of the opposing team are not falling, the players of the opposite team adopt different methods to distract the batsman. Siraj also did the same.
