Tim Southee Highlights Mohammed Siraj as Key Threat in India-New Zealand Test Series
Former New Zealand cricketer Tim Southee highlighted challenges India may face in their upcoming multi-format tour to New Zealand, particularly noting that New Zealand has historically played Jasprit Bumrah well in Test matches. Southee emphasized that Bumrah has not been part of an Indian team that defeated New Zealand in Tests. He also praised Mohammed Siraj's bowling, suggesting that if Siraj finds the right length, he could be a significant threat to New Zealand's batsmen in the two-Test series starting November 19.
