India’s residence ODI collection towards Sri Lanka actually belonged to Virat Kohli because the famous person batter slammed two centuries within the 3-match contest, main India’s cost with the bat. As India claimed a 3-0 victory over the Lankans, it was Kohli who bagged the Player of the Series award. However, former India opener Gautam Gambhir does not really feel awarding the honour solely to Kohli was proper. If it was as much as Gambhir, pacer Mohammed Siraj would’ve been the joint-winner of the award.

Kohli ended the collection with 283 runs underneath his belt, at a median of 141.50. Siraj, then again, was the highest wicket-taker within the collection, claiming 9 scalps at a median of 10.22.

Speaking on Star Sports, Gambhir spoke his thoughts as he urged that Siraj and Kohli ought to’ve shared the Player of the Series trophy collectively.

“For me, I think he was on par with Virat Kohli. There should have been a joint Man of the Series because he was exceptional and these were beautiful batting wickets. I know we are always tempted towards batters getting big hundreds but I think Mohammed Siraj was absolutely exceptional too in this entire series.”

Siraj hasn’t but claimed a 5-wicket-haul in ODI cricket and he got here very near doing so within the third match towards Sri Lanka. But, ultimately, the pacer might solely get 4 wickets for 32 runs. Gambhir, nonetheless, stays assured of Siraj’s capability to get fifers.

“I think the hallmark is, he will get many more five-fors, it’s not about that he didn’t get it today but how good was he, especially with the new ball. In every game, he was able to set the tone,” stated the cricketer-turned-politician.
