'Every series needs a villain and Siraj is now that villain': Clarke


New Delhi . Former Australian captain Michael Clarke said India fast bowler Mohammed Siraj should be fined for his habit of celebrating wickets without appealing to the umpires for being out LBW, and he was surprised at the ICC not penalizing him for it. Expressed.

Siraj has been in the headlines for his sendoff altercation with Travis Head after being dismissed for 140 in Adelaide. Clarke's comments point to the example of Siraj 'celebrating' without looking at the umpire when he was out LBW against Marnus Labuschagne, but replays show the ball having a bigger inside edge.

“Siraj should be fined for continuously appealing for LBW and not asking the umpire. He hits the ball on the batsman's pads and runs away like he is out. I am surprised the ICC did not fine him, because I remember when I was playing, there was a penalty every time.

“Brett Lee was the worst in this matter and he told him, 'If you don't turn back and ask the umpire, you will be fined'. I am more worried about Siraj about this than him and Travis Head. Siraj said Had done this in the first test also.

“You can appeal all you want, but you've got to go back and ask the umpire,” Clarke said on the Big Sports Breakfast show on Monday. “I'm really surprised he wasn't fined.” Travis Head was also sent off. Giving it off was like fooling the guy who has just scored 140; give it to someone who has scored five runs and not 140.

Former Australian fast bowler Stuart Clark agreed with Clarke's views and said that this habit of Siraj is a bigger problem than his exchange of words with Head. “I think it's much worse than what happened in the (Head) incident. And it's been brought up and discussed many times that you can't do that.

Clarke said, “The umpires are quite clear, and the rules are, that you have to turn back and show respect and ask the umpire if it's out. It didn't look good, he ran down the wicket, went ahead, 'This It's out' … Then when they showed the replay, he had hit the ball on the inside of his pads. If I was a match referee or an official, I would have said something like, 'Dude, that's got to be stopped, because that's it.' not good It seems and this puts a lot of pressure on the umpire, and that too in an unfair manner.

Despite multiple reports in the Australian media stating that Head and Siraj would face ICC sanctions for code of conduct breaches, Clarke said he had no major problem with the clash between the two, although he felt the incident was This has made Siraj the villain in the eyes of the Australian public for the rest of the series.

Following the clash with Head, Siraj faced booing from the Adelaide Oval crowd when coming out to bowl or bat in the pinkball Test. “I hope the game continues. They'll get a naughty boy's slap on the wrist, we all hope. I'm sure they'll get a fine, which they'll probably pay out of their pocket money, and then I hope That this game will continue.

“It didn't look very good… but there was a lot of confusion about what was said. Mohammed Siraj was thinking one thing, waving his arms, Travis Head was saying one thing. To be fair, it made the day on the field Made the drama even more fun.

“Every series needs a villain – Mohammed Siraj is that villain now and I think it will be great in the coming series in Brisbane, where when he comes out to bat and when he comes out to bowl, “Both the young and the old will play against each other in a good confrontational way. I would be disappointed if they were out of the game, I think.”
