Team India fast bowler Mohammed Siraj appeared exhausted on Day 4 (Monday, October 13) of the second Test against the West Indies at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Siraj was seen receiving a head and foot massage inside the Indian dugout during the visitors’ second innings after an extensive bowling.
Siraj dismissed Shai Hope, who scored 103 off 214 balls, in the 84th over. Hope, attempting to play a back-of-a-length delivery, was undone by the low bounce as the ball caught the inside edge and crashed into the stumps. Siraj celebrated with his trademark gesture after claiming his second wicket of the innings.
After completing his six-over spell, Mohammed Siraj was spotted in the Indian dugout receiving both a head and leg massage, with an ice pack placed on his head for relief.
The video of the moment quickly went viral on social media, sparking mixed reactions among fans. Many expressed frustration toward skipper Shubman Gill and coach Gautam Gambhir for enforcing the follow-on, which resulted in Indian players staying on the field for over 190 overs.

Team India was in a spot of bother for the first time in the home series when the West Indies showed a fighting spirit in the second innings. Shubman Gill enforced the follow-on with a 270-run lead, and the visitors responded with resilience and determination.
John Campbell and Shai Hope frustrated the Indian bowlers with a 177-run partnership for the third wicket. Campbell and Hope scored centuries as the visiting team erased the deficit. They forced India to bat again in the ongoing match.
However, India regained control in the second session. Kuldeep Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah triggered a collapse and brought the hosts back into contention. Justin Greaves and Jayden Seales added an unbeaten 50-run stand for the final wicket, guiding their team to 363/9 by tea on Day 4.
