New Delhi: East India Spinner Ravichandran Ashwin But has created concern Mohammad SirajHeadingley, performance in the first testing against England in Leeds urges pacer to focus on controlling the flow of runs instead of the target for wickets. Siraj abolished a difficult outing, scoring runs at an economy rate of 4.05 and taking only two wickets in both innings.On the surface offering a little help to the bowlers, Siraj conceded 122 runs in 27 overs in the first innings, claiming two wickets. His struggle continued in the second innings, where he became wicket -free in 14 overs and scored 51 runs.“My only question for Sirj is … Can you dry the run flow? You do not need to take wickets. But can’t you give 4-5 runs in every over? If the runs are leaked, then you have to bring Bumrah back into the attack. How many dams will Bumrah be able to build? “Ashwin said on his YouTube channel.

Should Mohammad Siraj focus more on controlling the run flow rather than aiming for a completely target for wickets?
Jasprit Bumrah stood out as India’s best bowler in England’s first innings, claiming five wickets. Prasad Krishna also took three wickets, but was expensive, scored in the 6.40 economy.“In addition, he gets tired, and his mantras are pushed, and till then, the participation is forged. Or you have to go with Jadeja, which will have to move and stem in the flow of runs. Prasad is playing for the first time, and he is inexperienced. So Siraj has to play a bankable role. Morne Morkel Used to bowl 2/43 in 20 overs? This should be their role. In Bazball, you can go for 2/58, I think. Siraj has to play that role, and if he is effective in this, it will make a lot of difference, “Ashwin said.The experienced spinner further emphasized that Test cricket support roles are as much as it is about personal talent.“I believe that taking wickets is important in Test cricket. But in Test cricket, you also bowl for each other. Ishant Sharma did it surprisingly. He played Morkel’s role very well. He pressures one end, and he used to give just 40-oud runs after a whole day’s game. I was not asking it,”
