The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) rules fast bowler Mohammed Siraj out of India’s tours of Ireland and England. Multiple reports say the board’s decision is precautionary and aimed at supporting Siraj’s recovery ahead of what both outlets describe as a busy, long international season. The BCCI frames the move as a measure to help the player rest and return in better condition for the subsequent part of the schedule. Both sources state that Prasidh Krishna is named as Siraj’s replacement for the Ireland and England tours. The reporting does not indicate any change in selection strategy beyond the injury-management and workload-planning rationale, and it focuses on the board’s intent to ensure Siraj recovers quickly. The announcements place the emphasis on player availability and fitness management for upcoming international commitments, with Krishna stepping in to fill the bowling spot during both tours.
