India clinched 3-0 series win against Sri Lanka on January 15, Former India cricketer Mohammad Kaif said that pacer Mohammed Siraj had been the biggest plus for India throughout the three-match series.
“The biggest positive has been Mohammed Siraj. Wanting to win the World Cup in India in flat conditions, I think Mohammed Siraj has done so well. If you see the last couple of matches, he’s been bowling really well, getting the breakthrough with the new ball. He has got wickets even when he comes in to bowl towards the end,” Kaif said while speaking to Star Sports.
We need to improve on our death bowling: Kaif
“They have Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav who can take wickets in the middle overs. They have Umran Malik who can get wickets in the middle overs. But in the first ODI we saw that in the last 13 overs, there was no wicket taken by the Indian bowlers. Shanaka scored 100 in that game, although Sri Lanka lost the game, but I think we need to improve on our death bowling. That’s where we are missing Bumrah very much because he is a genuine match-winner, a wicket-taker,” Kaif added.
