IPL 2023: Mohammed Siraj indulge in verbal spat with David Warner, Philip Salt during DC vs RCB clash
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)’s fast bowler Mohammed Siraj has been performing impressively in the current season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Siraj has taken 15 wickets so far, making him RCB’s top wicket-taker. However, during their match against the Delhi Capitals (DC) on Saturday, the 29-year-old bowler was targeted early on by the DC batter.
Philip Salt, England cricketer who is plying his trade for DC in IPL 2023, was particularly aggressive towards Siraj. Salt hit two sixes and a four off Siraj’s bowling in his second over. This onslaught caused Siraj to lose his temper, resulting in a verbal altercation between himself, Salt and DC captain David Warner. Unfortunately, Siraj ended up conceding 28 runs without taking any wickets and was only able to bowl two overs.

Siraj should have atleast thought that Salt and Warner both are World Cup winner players, meanwhile he himself plays for RCB. 😭😭#DCvRCB #IPL2O23 pic.twitter.com/jAymoBlHUw
