Mohammed Siraj Withdrawn from India Squads, Advised Rest by BCCI
Indian fast bowler Mohammed Siraj has been withdrawn from India's squads after consultations between the BCCI Medical Team and the team management.
According to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Siraj has been advised to undergo a period of rest as part of his workload management programme. The decision has been taken to ensure the pacer's long-term fitness and readiness for upcoming international assignments.
Siraj has been a key member of India's pace attack across formats and has featured extensively in recent international fixtures. The medical team, in coordination with team management, assessed his workload and recommended a break to aid recovery and prevent injury risks associated with a demanding cricket calendar.
The BCCI is expected to monitor Siraj's progress during the rest period before taking a call on his return to competitive cricket. Further updates regarding squad adjustments and replacements, if any, are likely to be announced in due course.
India's team management continues to prioritize player fitness and workload management as part of its long-term strategy to maintain peak performance across all formats of the game.
