Mohammed Siraj Backs BCCI Decision
During the same conversation, Mohammed Siraj supported the decision of BCCI that it is mandatory for national players to play home cricket in the lack of international crisis. He thinks young people will be encouraged if they see like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli playing home cricket.
“When you are free or available as a player, you have to take the time to represent your country. Young on the team will be motivated by your presence. They will also get an incentive, sharing locker rooms with virat (Kohli) Bhai and Rohit (Sharma) Bhai. It’s good. A sign for a new generation, “Siraj said.
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were among some of the high Indian players who recently played Ranji Trophy for their teams. BCCI made it mandatory for centrally contracted players to make it available regularly for the home cricket after defeating Australia in the Border-Gavascar trophy.
