Team India managed to register a brilliant win in the first Test of the ongoing series against Bangladesh. Giving the visitors a target of 515 runs to chase down, team India managed to limit the side to 234 runs in the second innings and won the game by 280 runs. 

However, in an unrelated moment, star batter Shubman Gill went viral after he was captured trolling Mohammed Siraj on the field. In the video, which has been going viral all over social media, Gill was captured saying, “Mohammad Siraj official ID hai, baaki ki sab fake hain. (This is Mohammed Siraj’s official ID, the rest are fake).”

The context of the clip related to an old video that Siraj had shared on his Instagram. Many years ago, Siraj had made the account and posted the video where he was seen talking about how the said account was the original one, and there were a lot of fake ones as well.
