The Indian team is fired up in the final IND Vs SL ODI match. They know that a loss here would be disastrous as this is the final ODI that the Indian team will play this year. Losing here is not acceptable.
A loss today will also mean that India will lose their first bilateral series against Sri Lanka in 27 years. And that is not how Gautam Gambhir would like to start his ODI coaching career.
Every Indian player was fired up but we know that some of the Blues tend to get more aggressive according to the moment. Mohammed Siraj is one of those bowlers and we saw something similar in this final ODI.
Heated Battle!
The incident took place in the 39th over of the innings when Siraj got into a verbal spat with Kusal Mendis. After the third ball of the over, both these players started hurling words towards each other.
Siraj was in no mood for jokes and was even seen gesturing for Mendis to shut up with his hands. Rishabh Pant was seen in the background as he was telling Siraj to bowl at good line and length.
IND Vs SL: Perfect Reply
But it did not take Siraj that much longer to make a comeback. Mendis took a single on the next delivery leaving Sadeera Samarawickrama to face all the wrath of Siraj alone. And he was not able to do that.
Siraj bowled a perfect yorker that left Sadeera speechless and he had no reply against that delivery. Even after being given not out, skipper Rohit Sharma opted for the DRS, and in the end, Sadeera was given out.
Virat Kohli joined the celebration with Siraj and was seen shouting and roaring while looking at Mendis directly.
