As there are no chances of losing the series, Irfan Pathan suggested that the Indian cricket team play the experienced fast bowler Mohammed Siraj in the fourth match in Mount Maunganui on Friday, November 13.
Ahead of the fourth ODI, the team management has released Anshul Kamboj, one of their pacers who played in the first couple of matches, to start preparations for the Tests in New Zealand, which will be after the conclusion of the ODI series. In the absence of Kamboj, the team will have to name someone as his replacement.

"This is the perfect time to play him as well. Right now, India can't lose a series. So, India is in a very strong position. Siraj should get a game also because he hasn't played cricket for some time now. The Test matches are coming up. If he gets those 10 overs going for himself, it will be good for his Test match preparation. The selectors and the management will get an idea where Siraj is with his white-ball cricket," Pathan opined.

"A practice game is different. International cricket is different. I want to see my premier fast bowler be ready for Test cricket when the time comes. Also, by playing one-day cricket and bowling 10 overs, he can tell the selectors, ' Okay, I'm here, and I can bowl really well in one-day cricket. Don't forget me. I would like to see him getting an opportunity," Pathan added.
