Cricket | When the great batsman Sachin Tendulkar speaks, everyone listens to him very carefully. When Sachin praises a cricketer, it often becomes the most memorable moment for that player. Tendulkar has a keen eye on young talent. Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar has showered praises on young cricketers - from Prithvi Shaw to Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan - and those cricketers have impressed everyone with their performances. Sachin has now also praised India's fast bowler Mohammad Siraj. The batting great lauded the 27-year-old pacer's energy and body language. He has also given two reasons behind the immense success of Siraj.

Sachin impressed by Siraj's performance

When Sachin was recently asked what impressed you the most about Siraj, the God of Cricket, during a conversation with Boria Majumdar, praised Siraj and said, "He has spring in his legs." Which I love watching. You see his runup. He looks completely full of energy. Siraj is one of those bowlers, looking at whom you cannot guess whether he is bowling the first over of the day or the last. He bowls with full stamina, which is what I love to see.

Sachin further said, 'Siraj is a proper fast bowler. His body language is superb. He always remains positive. These are the things I like in a bowler. Not only this, Siraj is also a fast learner. When he played in Australia last year and made his Test debut at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, it didn't seem like he was playing a Test match for the first time. But he showed maturity from the very first match. He cast his spell so beautifully and never looked back.

International career of Mohammad Siraj

Siraj made his international debut for India in a T20 match in 2017. He then made his ODI debut in 2019 and then Test debut in 2020. Siraj has so far taken 33 wickets in 10 Test matches for India. He has also taken 4 wickets in 4 T20 International matches. The Indian fast bowler has played only one ODI so far, in which he did not get any success.
