India captain Rohit Sharma lauds Mohammed Siraj for bowling performance against West Indies

The Hindu  

The Indian team is in the right place, said skipper Rohit Sharma after the 1-0 series win over the West Indies and praised Mohammed Siraj for stepping up in the absence of senior pacers. Siraj picked up his maiden Man-of-the-Match award in the traditional five-day game after grabbing 5 for 60 in the West Indies’ first innings of the second Test, which ended in a draw after rain washed out the fifth and final day’s play at the Queen’s Park Oval. No play today, unfortunate for us.” The Indian captain also lauded the efforts of centurion Virat Kohli and Ishan Kishan, who slammed a 34-ball 52 in the second innings before the declaration came about. West Indies skipper Kraigg Brathwaite, who saw his team surrender inside three days in the first Test in Dominica, said he was happy to see the batters lasting over 100 overs in the first innings.
