Team India completely dominated the 3rd ODI match. The team would be overjoyed as winning the ODI Series after losing the first games is quite special. Shikhar Dhawan led the side and showed character as the visitors had all their star players for the series.

South African Cricket Team would be shattered after such a humiliating performance. The Proteas played too defensively in the 3rd ODI where they should have looked for a rotating strike rather than playing a string of dot balls. The likes of Quinton de Kock & David Miller should have batted responsibly.

Mohammed Siraj took 5 wickets in the ODI Series and was quite spot-on with his line & length. The right-arm pacer is making a strong case for himself for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2022. The format may be different but he has good control and can be a force to reckon with in Australia.

Siraj would be hoping that he gets a nod over Mohammed Shami. Siraj has got some serious pace which could prove lethal in Australia’s fast & bouncy pitches. It would be interesting to see what decision the Selection Panel makes for the marquee tournament.

 Performing against a good team gives you a lot of confidence- Mohammed Siraj

During the post-match presentation, Siraj who won the Player of the Series was asked about his performance. “Performing against a good team gives you a lot of confidence. I had to take the responsibility.”

 I try to figure out the right lengths – Mohammed Siraj

“I try to figure out the right lengths at the start of the innings. As a fast bowler, you need that fire and passion inside you. Happy with my performance, and happy to get this Player of the Series award.”
