Siraj put a finger on his lips to celebrate Jonny Bairstow's wicket at Trent Bridge.
Raja who wasn’t quite impressed with the way Indian quick Mohammed Siraj celebrated his wicket, took an indirect jibe at the bowler as he feels Siraj celebrates too much.
“There is no extravagant celebration when James Anderson picks up a wicket. The celebration after picking up a wicket should be a bit subdued. You have won the battle. Anderson doesn't put a finger on his lips and nor does he salute,” Ramiz Raja said in his latest YouTube video.
“So this is a lesson for the youngsters as to how to become a champion bowler. Your enjoyment should be graceful after picking up a wicket,” the Pakistan cricketer added.
The 39-year-old right-arm quick had a great outing in the second Test at Lord’s as he picked yet another 5-wicket haul against Virat Kohli and Co.
“This is not the first time Anderson has picked up five wickets. He has picked up about 350 wickets after the age of thirty. He is a great role model for youngsters. If you look back at his career, he had just one goal and that was to become a champion bowler,” the 59-year-old said.
The right-hand batsman from Faisalabad then praised Anderson who only plays in the longest format for picking the most difficult format to excel.
“Anderson chose the most difficult format to be a champion. If there is a bowling end on your name while you are playing, then that is the icing on the cake,” the cricketer-turned-commentator opined.
