KL Rahul’s advice to bowl hard lengths worked for me: Siraj

KL Rahul’s advice to bowl hard lengths worked for me: Siraj

 

Kolkata:  India pace bowler Mohammed Siraj credited his success on Thursday in the second ODI against Sri Lanka to KL Rahul’s accurate reading of the Eden Gardens strip and conditions during the second ODI here on Thursday.

Sri Lanka were bundled out for 215 in just 39.4 overs with Siraj and Kuldeep accounting for three wickets each as the visitors found the going tough on a batting track.

Siraj, who played a vital role in the opening ODI at Guwahati taking two wickets as Sri Lanka lost the opener by 67 runs, said during the innings break on Thursday that Rahul noticed that the ball had stopped doing its bit after only the first over and that a new strategy would have to be employed against the experienced batting order.
