Mohammed Siraj and Liton Das Involved in Heating, Sledging Incident in IND Vs BAN Day 2, Test. Virat Kohli Seen Joining Them In The Heated Fight.
On the Day 2, of The First Test Between Team India and Bangladesh, Indian Pacer Mohammed Siraj got involved in a heated scene with Bangladeshi Batsman Liton Das, both found in sledging each other where Virat Kohli - the Indian Legend also joined them in the battle, before the latter's dismissal.
Liton Das : The Bangladeshi Batsman who recently had led Bangladesh Team to 2-1 Win in ODI Series against Team India !
Mohammed Siraj, as a pacer, was bowling excellently well as reported on Thursday, 15th December, as all the Bangladeshi Batters struggled to face his balls. The scenario continued...
On the First Ball of 14th over, Siraj Bowled a 140kmph speeded delivery to Liton, on which the batter was pushed back to backfoot for defense. While his follow through, Siraj came near close to Das, and had a verbal banter there, he said few words to the Bangladesh Batter. On which Liton Das came down from his position and with his cheeks he signalled that he did not hear anything !

This was an WAR OF WORDS, which seemed to have an impact on the Bangladeshi Batter and more or less on Siraj too! However he managed to get Liton Das dismissed on the very next ball of his over, with a bottom edge of the ball which was a good length delivery by Siraj, the Batter managed to get the ball hit the stumps and get himself out. Liton Das Scored 24runs in 30Balls, which included 5 Fours as boundaries.
Bangladesh Loses 4 Wickets in 20 Overs in their first innings vs India :
Bangladeshi Batters were seen to be not in touch with bat and the ball much during the first 20overs. Yasir Ali, Najmul Hussain Shanto, LITON DAS, and Zakir Hasan Got out within 56. Giving a board of 56/4 inside first 20overs.
Whereas India on their first innings scored a 404 Runs inthe board with having some major half centuries from :
Cheteshwar Pujara
Ravichandran Ashwin
Shreyas Iyer
Where Rishabh Pant and Kuldeep Yadav contributed important 40s.
Talking about Pujara, on Day 1, He played an important knock of 90 runs which were amazing, Shreyas Iyer scores fantastic 82runs not out, and the aggresor Pant scores 46. Finally India got 276 runs for 6 wickets at the stumps.
On Day 2, Iyer got out of 86, but Ashwin and Kuldeep had a good partnership of 87runs in total. One more than Iyer!. Ashwin scored awesome 58 runs and Yadav contributes 40runs.
After then when Bangladesh's Batting cane this incident happened. In our perspective there were faults from both the sides. Firstly Siraj shouldn't have done such thing if someone was not being able to play on his balls and then Liton Das heated the exchange with actions and words which were not appropriate. Virat Kohli also seems to interfere, but maybe the matter would have kept cool. However Liton got out and the frustrations were released finally. It's our own view, we don't blame anyone, do comment and tell us what's your point of view in this matter ~
And Well Done Siraj on his excellent bowling!
