Siraj's Aggressive Celebration Sparks Controversy at Lord's

Indian fast bowler Mohammad Siraj's aggressive celebration after dismissing Ben Duckett in the England vs India Test match has drawn criticism from former England captain Alastair Cook.

Cook, while acknowledging the passion of celebrating a wicket, condemned Siraj's actions, which involved shouting in Duckett's face and making physical contact. He called for repercussions from the cricketing authorities, stating such behavior crossed the line.

The incident occurred during England's second innings when Siraj dismissed Duckett and proceeded to celebrate aggressively in close proximity to the batsman. Cook emphasized that while celebrating wickets is acceptable, physical contact and shouting in a player's face are unacceptable.

This incident adds to the growing tension between the two sides in the ongoing Test series. The match itself remains delicately poised, with India needing 135 runs to win on the final day.
