Aakash Chopra Says Mohammad Siraj Got Marginalized in the Final WC 2023: Where did India make a mistake in the final World Cup 2023? Before the final, the last 10 matches were won by India, showing their best performances in batting and bowling. But when it came to the final, India lost the match to Australia by 6 wickets.

Former India Batter Akash Chopra says that Mohammad Siraj got Marginalized in the World Cup 2023 final match, let us look into the topic deeply.

“Mohammad Got Marginalized…..” – Aakash Chopra’s Statement on His YouTube

Even Though India played well, Australia restricted India by 240 runs and they reached that target in just 43 overs. As the game becomes tough, India also changed their bowling strategy a bit by giving a new ball to Mohammad Shami instead Siraj.

Former India Batter Aakash Chopra speaking on his Youtube Channel, said that,

“We started well with the ball but were slightly wayward because we were going left-right too much. We were thinking about picking up wickets quickly because we didn’t have runs on the board. We went with Shami instead of Siraj because we didn’t have runs on the board.”

“When we did that, Shami did pick up a wicket, but Siraj got marginalized. He didn’t get a chance at all. His game was almost over because you couldn’t bring him in. Bumrah got two wickets, and Shami also got one. But 15 runs in the first over, 13 in the second…too many runs were scored in the first few overs.”

If we see the wickets taken by Siraj, he has taken 14 wickets in 11 matches. Coming to the match in the finals, India had 240 runs for 50 overs. If we see the scores of the batters Virat and KL Rahul has scored two half centuries, while skipper Rohit Sharma has taken 47 runs in 31 balls.

Anyway, the World cup finalists are again going to meet in Visakhapatnam on Thursday to compete on T20I series.
