Siraj vs Brook: Heated Exchange Erupts on Day 3 of Headingley Test-Watch

Mohammed Siraj loses cool after back-to-back boundaries from Harry Brook, sparking a verbal spat and a fiery over that ended with 18 runs and no wicket.

📍Leeds, June 23, 2025 — Tensions ran high on Day 3 of the first India vs England Test at Headingley as Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj engaged in a verbal altercation with Harry Brook, one of England’s top performers in the innings. The exchange took place in the 84th over after Brook hit Siraj for consecutive boundaries, prompting a visible reaction from the bowler.

The face-off escalated after Siraj attempted a comeback with a sharp delivery that nipped in, followed by an intense stare and a few pointed words. Brook, unfazed, waved him off and gestured for Siraj to return to his run-up. Siraj’s aggressive tactics backfired, as Brook went on to smash a huge six over long-on, bringing up 18 runs in the over.


🎯 High-Octane Drama, Modest Returns

Siraj finished with 2/122, claiming key wickets of Ben Stokes and Brydon Carse, but remained expensive throughout. Meanwhile, Brook, in sublime touch, fell just short of a century, dismissed on 99 by Prasidh Krishna, who also picked up Jamie Smith but conceded 128 runs in his 20 overs.
