Facing Mohammed Siraj is always a challenge for batters, says Moeen Ali

Former England all-rounder Moeen Ali feels India pacer Mohammed Siraj's big heart and his steadfast refusal to back down in the face of adversity sets him apart from the rest and makes him a difficult proposition for any batter. With 23 scalps to his name, Siraj emerged as the highest wicket-taker in the just-concluded Test tour of England, playing a key role in India holding the hosts to a 2-2 draw in an intensely fought five-match series. "Siraj has been outstanding in the England series. The energy, aggression, and consistency he brings with the ball is world-class. He's matured into a genuine match-winner for India, and it's always a challenge for batsmen facing him," said Moeen in a release from GFS Developments. "What impresses me most is his ability to control the ball. He's got a big heart and never backs down - that's what makes him so special. Credit to him for the impact he's making," he added. Siraj played all five Tests against England and bowled a staggering 185.3 ove

IND vs ENG: Probably Root should be Man of the Series, says Harry Brook

Star England batter Harry Brook disagreed with India coach Gautam Gambhir's decision to name him as Player of the Series, saying the honour should have gone to Joe Root for his prolific run in the five-Test series. With the series ending 2-2, each team's coach selected one player from the opposition for the Player of the Series award. While England head coach Brendon McCullum picked India captain Shubman Gill, Gambhir chose Brook as England's standout performer. Brook played a destructive innings of 111 off 98 balls on the fourth day of the final Test, putting England on the brink of a record chase before the visitors collapsed, losing seven wickets for 66 runs to concede the match. "I didn't score as many runs as Rooty (Joe Root), so I probably think he should be Man of the Seriesand Man of the Summer again, like he has been for many years," Brook told the BBC. "I think we're in a great place. Obviously, it has been an awesome series. 2-2, I didn't think it was going to be like t

India winning without Bumrah a coincidence, says Sachin Tendulkar

Batting great Sachin Tendulkar feels that India winning two Tests against England in Jasprit Bumrah's absence was a mere "coincidence" and the talismanic pace spearhead's quality remains "exceptional and unbelievable". Bumrah played three of the just-concluded five-Test series in which a relatively inexperienced India eked out a creditable 2-2 draw. The two games that India won did not feature Bumrah due to a pre-decided workload management plan. Tendulkar said India emerging victorious at Birmingham and The Oval in Bumrah's absence was a matter of chance. He went on to highlight Bumrah's performances in the three Tests he played, fetching 14 wickets in all. "Bumrah started off really well, got five wickets in the (first innings of the) first Test. He did not play the second Test, but (played in) the third and the fourth. Again, in (one of) those two Tests, he got (a) five wickets (haul)," Tendulkar said in his video analysis of the series on 'Reddit'. "Of three Test that he played

Like Bumrah, Siraj's workload needs care to avoid injury: RP Singh

Mohammed Siraj is in the same league as premier pacer Jasprit Bumrah and it is important to manage his workload carefully to keep him injury-free, said former Indian fast bowler RP Singh. Siraj bowled 185.3 overs in the recently-concluded five-match Test series in England and finished as the highest wicket-taker with 23 wickets, emerging as the most utilised bowler in the series. The 31-year-old from Hyderabad claimed nine wickets, including a five-wicket haul in the second innings of the fifth Test, playing a key role in India's six-run victory that helped the visitors level the series 2-2. Workload management will be crucial to prevent Siraj from getting injured in the future," Singh said in an interview with PTI-Bhasha. "Fast bowlers are at higher risk of injury when they play too many matches in a short time. His workload should be managed just like we did with Bumrah." Citing Jasprit Bumrah's example, Singh said: "It's because of better workload management, Bumrah bowled ...

Abhishek Nayar aims to build trophy-winning culture at UP Warriorz

Former India assistant coach Abhishek Nayar sees his new role as head coach of the Women's Premier League side UP Warriorz more as an opportunity than a challenge, as he aims to build a trophy-winning culture. Nayar was appointed as the head coach of the franchise after a disappointing last-place finish in the WPL earlier this year, which followed their fourth-place finish in 2024 and third-place finish in the inaugural edition in 2023. I've always looked at anything as opportunities and and this is an opportunity, which I'm very, very excited for in that regard, Nayar told PTI in an exclusive interview organised by the franchise. The opportunity is to create a culture where everyone who enters this franchise understands that this franchise plays to win trophies, and try and bring that mentality into this franchise and into our ecosystem, he said. Unfazed with how the last three seasons in WPL have gone for his new franchise, Nayar said the only challenge for them is to move up. I
