Indian fast bowler Mohammed Siraj walked toward the boundary, trying to calm the fans and stop the rising tension. Even then, some people continued shouting, forcing Siraj and assistant coach Sitanshu Kotak to move even closer to speak directly to them and ask them to stop.
In the viral video, Siraj was seen shushing the crowd, and even the fast bowler tried to express his disappointment through his facial expression, yet the fans didn’t stop targeting Gambhir.
This led Kotak to explain to the crowd that such chants were not right. The batting coach asked the fans to avoid blaming people personally and to stay respectful even in a tough moment.
