Siraj’s Shocker! How a Boundary Rope Blunder Cost India Against England

The India vs. England Test match is a rollercoaster of thrilling moments, and none more bizarre than Mohammed Siraj’s recent mishap. While Harry Brook’s aggressive batting kept India on the defensive, it was Siraj’s unintentional boundary-rope transgression that truly stole the show.

Prasidh Krishna, celebrating what he thought was a crucial wicket, was left utterly stunned. Siraj, in the heat of the moment, inadvertently stepped over the boundary while attempting to complete a catch, gifting Brook six extra runs instead of an out. This unexpected turn of events served as a perfect illustration of the match’s wildly fluctuating momentum.

With England pushing for a series win and India desperately trying to level the score, every run—and every mistake—carries immense weight. Siraj’s blunder certainly falls into that category, a memorable moment highlighting both the intensity and the occasional absurdity of Test cricket.
