Rohit Sharma was standing at first slip, wondering what happened. For an Indian fan, it's the worst nightmares coming true—a pacer walking off the field this early into the match is a scenario that would give vivid flashbacks from yesteryears.

Rohit wanted one more and Siraj obliged. However, his body couldn't. Through the recent past, there has been enough evidence that Siraj hasn't always had the same endurance for spells longer than what he did in Brisbane.
