Mohammed Siraj: Former England captain Nasser Hussain believes that, despite doing all the good things with the ball in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series, Mohammed Siraj might now just be remembered for the missed catch of Harry Brook on the fourth day of the fifth Test at The Oval.
On the first ball of the 35th over, Brook had a big reprieve on 19 when Siraj, who came back on the field after a short break, attempted to take the catch in the deep off Prasidh. But in the process of taking it, the pacer stepped on the boundary cushion to concede a six.
It proved to be a costly miss for India as Brook went on to hit a blazing 111, his tenth Test century, which has put England on the verge of completing a 3-1 series win. "Siraj has done so much in the series - leading wicket-taker, all his heart and passion - but may be remembered for the catch that wasn't (taken when Brook was on 19)."
