In the match 27 between Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore, Mohammed Siraj has inflicted a fantastic run out of Harpreet Singh Bhatia with a direct hit. He enjoyed the moment with the trademark “Siiuuu” celebration of Cristiano Ronaldo alongside his fellow teammates.
It was a back of a length delivery from Vijaykumar Vyshak aimed at the stumps. Prabhsimran danced down the track and managed to push it towards the mid off fielder Mohammed Siraj. Meanwhile, the non-striker Harpreet Singh Bhatia started running down the track, only to be sent back by the striker. It allowed Siraj to pick up the ball quickly, take aim, and throw down the stumps with a direct hit at the non-striker’s end to run out Bhatia.
The moment the ball hit the stumps, Virat Kohli in the frame started running and screaming in celebration because he knew that the batter was short of his ground and consequently run out. He joined his fellow teammates and Mohammed Siraj, who had just completed the “Siiuuu.”
