Does Sirj do a standout in this IPL season?
“Yes, 100%,” Pamen said whether the old rule is helping him in the IPL, “If the ball is a little tail, there is a wicket. When saliva is not applied to the ball, it comes easily on the bat. Even if the ball is only a little, there is a chance to bowl and there is a chance to bring leg-baforl in playing.”
Former India’s Pacer and current Tamil Nadu head coach L Balaji felt that the effect of saliva on the ball is more than the sweat.
“The sweat has more sodium content and the ball becomes heavy when the sweat is applied to it. On the other hand, saliva helps to maintain better balance of the ball. The ball absorbs saliva well. By applying saliva, Siraj can get better grip on the ball and to buy it,” Balaji said, told on Monday.
The application of saliva helps to maintain a bright side on the ball and brings reverse swing to the equation. Siraj on Sunday displayed the benefits that could cut the bowlers rapidly, excluding the in-swings, causing a double hall in the penaltimet.
The IPL first prevented the use of saliva during the Kovid -19 epidemic and lifted the ban just further from the ongoing season. The ban, however, is still in international cricket.
Balaji said that using saliva had grown up with the bowlers of this generation and when it suddenly got away, it became difficult.
“There is one thing called a comfort level. I am sure in the case of Siraj. Add his experience and he looks really good,” said the former pacer.
While the saliva has been a help because the frequency of 200-plus pursuit has decreased significantly, pre-Australian legend Glenn McGrath said earlier: “I don’t think there is an issue of saliva; soaking on mint and other things. I have no issue with using saliva until anything else is being used.”
