Siraj is a good character, he gets the crowd up like Kohli: Hazlewood

ADELAIDE: Mohammed Siraj’s hot temper has become a topic of discussion but Australian quick Josh Hazlewood says the Indian pacer is a “good character” who fires up the crowd and is passionate about the game like Indian superstar Virat Kohli.

Siraj was involved in two incidents where his temper flared during the pink-ball Test that India lost by 10 wickets.

In Australia’s first innings, Siraj threw the ball wide off the stumps near Marnus Labuschagne after the Australian batter pulled away from his stance, forcing the bowler to halt his run-up.
