After taking the crucial wicket of Ben Duckett on Day 4 of the Lord's Test in the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, Mohammed Siraj was elated. In what might be a fantastic day of play, England started their second innings on 2/0 on day 4, and India drew first blood.
Duckett had scored 12 runs in 12 balls with one four when, in the sixth over, Siraj managed to fool him with a short ball. On the fifth ball of the 6th over, Siraj bowled a back-of-the-length, short delivery, which Duckett looked to pull over the mid-on fielder.
However, Duckett mistimed his shot and Jasprit Bumrah completed a very easy catch. After the dismissal, Siraj celebrated wildly with screams right in the face of Duckett, who avoided eye contact. Siraj was pumped up, and the umpires had to talk with him to calm him down a bit.

Thanks to 100 from KL Rahul and 74 from Rishabh Pant, and a fifty by Ravindra Jadeja, India had managed to draw level to England’s 387 runs in their first innings on day 3.
