UEFA Nations League: Mohamed Siraj honoured the late Diogo Jota, after the Liverpool footballer passed away in a fatal car crash last Thursday, with his celebration during Day 2 of the third Test in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy being played at Lord's.
The Indian quick is known for using footballer's celebrations with his favourite being Cristiano Ronaldo's trademark 'Siuu' celebration. Siraj struck right after lunch and claimed the important wicket of wicket-keeper batter Jamie Smith, who was part of an 84-run stand with Brydon Carse, and displayed the number 20, the number which the Portuguese footballer donned on his jersey, before joining his hands in prayer.
Jota and his brother Andre Silva passed away in a car accident in the Spanish province of Zamora. According to the Spanish police, Jota’s car veered off the road while driving at a high speed, a tyre blowout caused the car to lose control and caught fire.
