IND Playing XI vs NZ, WTC Final 2021: Mohammed Siraj Not Included, Experts Have Their Say On Pacer's Omission

There was no place in India's Playing XI for Mohammed Siraj against New Zealand. Experts have their say on the pacer's omission

Siraj will get his opportunities and he will go on to become a successful Test bowler. But for now, Ishant and Shami probably hadn’t done much wrong to be dropped! Excited for Cricket’s version of The Last Dance. Hope rain stays away. #WTCFinal

It is hard on Siraj but Ishant's incredible numbers over the last few years and, I suspect, confidence in his current fitness level, have tilted it in his favour. This is as complete a bowling attack as you can get

Indias team. Experience. Ishant over Siraj. Two spinners. All the very best. @BCCI @imVkohli pic.twitter.com/4mNoJj1cVd

No Brainer!

Bulls Eye! 👇🏼

No brainer actually. Four fast bowers weakens batting, extra batsman weakens bowling, both spinners add depth to bowling and batting. Ishant/Shami preferred to hugely talented Siraj because of greater international experience. Siraj’s time as regular not far away https://t.co/N79UkbOQde
