IND vs AUS Weather Live: Siraj gets Gavaskar support

No news yet as when the game will resume today. Meanwhile, Sunil Gavaskar stood by Mohammed Siraj after the latter was booed on Saturday at the Gabba. “Siraj is getting the stick from all the “saints” in Australian cricket who, of course, were known for their impeccable behaviour on the field. It may have incensed Australian fans that Siraj’s fiery send-off was directed at Head, who scored a magnificent century and was also the local boy. But the same people will cheer if an Aussie quick gives a similar send-off to an English batter during next summer’s Ashes. There were some suggestions in the media that the Australians should get back to being the mongrels they once were. So, do mongrels simply purr, or do they bark, too,” Sunil Gavaskar told Sydney Morning Herald.
