The Border-Gavaskar Trophy series between Australia and India is heating up, and it’s getting a lot of attention. In Adelaide, there was a heated moment between Australian player Travis Head and Indian bowler Mohammed Siraj. After Siraj got Head out, he celebrated passionately, which upset the crowd who then booed him. Even though Australia won the match and evened the series, everyone was talking about this clash.

Former Indian captain Sunil Gavaskar understood why Siraj acted that way after taking Head’s wicket. He mentioned that fast bowlers often get really fired up in tense moments. Siraj’s fiery celebration wasn’t liked by the audience, and they showed their displeasure loudly.

On Day 1 of the next Test match at the Gabba in Brisbane, Siraj faced more boos from the crowd, and it seemed to bother him. Gavaskar pointed out that while Siraj’s actions might seem intense, Australia’s public has its double standards. He noted that Australian fans often cheer when their players act aggressively, but they boo foreign players for doing the same.

Gavaskar also expressed surprise at Siraj’s reaction, suggesting that with the Indian Premier League (IPL) making players rich, some rivalries have softened over time. He emphasized that cricket still involves high intensity and passion but without the ugly behavior that used to be common. According to him, players should leave the ugly fights behind and focus on the game instead.
