It seems as if Siraj’s IPL 2024 campaign has not started properly yet as his form is going very bad. RCB has played 6 matches, in which they have faced defeat in 5 matches, but that is not visible in Siraj’s bowling. Siraj’s poor form continued against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium on Thursday. This fast bowler of RCB gave 37 runs in his 3 overs and could not take any wicket, as a result Mumbai Indians easily won the match. In IPL 2024, Siraj (Mohammed Siraj) has taken only 4 wickets in 6 matches at an average of 57.25. This is in stark contrast to his IPL 2023 performance, where he took 19 wickets at an average of 19.79. Harbhajan Singh’s big statement regarding Siraj Speaking to Star Sports, Harbhajan advised the RCB management to give Siraj some time to get into form as he has not been able to perform as expected from him this season. “If I were part of the management, I would have rested Siraj for a few matches. Give them a break and time to think about what is going wrong with them. He is the same Siraj whom we have seen taking wickets with the new ball in Test, ODI and T20 cricket. “Siraj has been a champion bowler for Team India and RCB as well. I think he is very tired mentally and physically. They need rest. He is playing too much cricket. He played 4 Test matches against England, he bowled a lot of overs.” RCB’s next match will be against Sunrisers Hyderabad next Monday. It remains to be seen whether RCB management will listen to him or not.
