IPL 2021: Moahmmed Siraj is more skilful than Jasprit Bumrah, says Ashish Nehra

IPL 2021: Former pacer Ashish Nehral highlighted that Mohammed Siraj is a fine exponent of the new ball and his variations at the death is a huge asset to Royal Challengers Bangalore who are on top of the points table with 4 wins from as many matches.

Former India fast bowler Ashish Nehra has said Mohammed Siraj has evolved into a very good all-format bowler from being a red-ball specialist at the domestic level a couple of years ago. Ashsih Nehra said he believes Mohammed Siraj is even ahead of Jasprit Bumrah, one of the highly-rated fast bowlers going around, when it comes to skill-level, especially variations. Nehra's words of praise for Mohammed Siraj comes after the Royal Challengers Bangalore fast bowler made a match-winning impact against Rajasthan Royals in their IPL 2021 encounter on Thursday. Siraj broke the back of the Rajasthan batting line-up, picking up the wickets of Jos Buttler and David Miller before returning to send back Rahul Tewatia.
