Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma is at a crossroads as he considers team selection for the second Test against New Zealand in Pune. The decision to retain bowler Mohammed Siraj in the lineup is fraught with complexities.
Siraj's performance in home tests has raised questions, with only 19 wickets taken in 13 matches, contrasting sharply with his success overseas in countries like South Africa, England, and Australia. Experts cite an unsuitable bowling length as a likely technical flaw.
Despite concerns, Siraj's upcoming tour to Australia offers hope, as his current bowling style may be more suited to the conditions there, providing another opportunity to reclaim his form.
