'Siraj should be fined for...' - Former Australian player bashes Mohammed Siraj for 'celebrappeals' in matches against Australia

Mohammed Siraj has been a bit on the aggressive side lately while bowling. While the Travis Head incident has gone viral on social media, he has the 'celebrappeal' style, keeping him engaged in the team. However, former Australian cricketer Michael Clarke has shown dissatisfaction with Siraj's approach of celebrating every LBW dismissal without even turning back to see the umpire's decision. As per Clarke, Siraj should be 'fined' for his celebrations to teach him a lesson. 

While having a chat at Sky Sports Radio's Big Sports Breakfast, Clarke said, "Siraj should be fined for keeping on appealing for lbws and not asking the umpire. He hits the batter on the pads and just runs down like they're out. I'm surprised the ICC haven't fined him because I remember when I was playing, you get fined every time. I'm more worried about that from Siraj than him and Travis Head. You're OK to appeal for anything you want, but you've got to turn around and ask the umpire."

Australia were on the winning side in the second Test match against India, where they won the game by ten wickets. It wasn't the best performance from the Indian team after winning the first game by 295 runs in Perth. The horrible batting performance by the batters was the main reason behind India's defeat in the second game. 

I'd like to see someone have a little word to Mohammed Siraj: Mark Taylor

Australia's former captain, Mark Taylor, too, agrees with Clarke on Siraj's early celebrations. He further urged senior players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma to speak with the bowler regarding his attitude toward the umpire before getting banned for a match or so. 

"I'd like to see someone have a little word to Mohammed Siraj. Someone like a Rohit Sharma or Virat Kohli needs to go up to him ... [because] that is disrespecting the game and the umpire. I like his competitive nature. He's a fine bowler. But I'd like someone to have a word with him because I don't like the fact that when he hits a guy on the pads, and he thinks he's got him out lbw, he continues to run down the pitch, past the batsman, almost gets to the keeper and then looks around to the umpire to see if he's going to give it out. That's got to stop, and if it doesn't stop shortly, someone, and it'll be the umpires or the match referee who might stop it for him, and give him a game off ... we don't want that," said Mark Taylor.
