Mohammed Siraj Marnus Labuschagne: Mohammad Siraj is irritating the eyes of Australian fans these days. Whenever he comes to bowl or the ball comes into his hands while fielding, Australian fans are seen shouting ‘boo’ for him. Now Siraj has once again come into the limelight because he has been seen doing tricks in the middle of the field. Actually, this trick worked for Team India after some time because Marnus Labuschagne got out on the score of 12 runs while playing the ball too outside.
This incident happened in the 33rd over of the innings when Mohammad Siraj was bowling. Marnus Labuschagne had let the second ball of the over go empty, then Siraj came forward staring at the Australian batsman. In response, Labuschagne also tried to stare at him, but Siraj ignored him and went near the stumps. Using a trick, he placed the left ball placed on the stumps on the right side and the right ball on the left side. However, Labuschagne later put the bells back in their rightful place.

Let us remind you that in the Adelaide Test also, Mohammed Siraj and Marnus Labuschagne had heated up the atmosphere. In that encounter, Labuschagne had moved away from the stumps even before the ball was bowled due to the ‘beer snake’ in front. This made Siraj angry and despite Labuschagne’s departure, he threw the ball towards the stumps.
As far as Brisbane Test is concerned, Siraj had performed the trick of changing the bails in the 33rd over. Nitish Reddy came to bowl the very next over. Nitish was bowling in the line of stumps for a long time, but then he bowled the second ball of the 34th over far out, which Labuschagne, in his greed to play, was caught by Virat Kohli standing in the slips.
