Simon Katich has slammed Mohammed Siraj for his send-off Travis Head and said the incident might ignite the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy, which is locked at 1-1 after two Tests.
Head and Siraj had a brief showdown on day two of the match that Australia won by 10 wickets on Sunday. Head had struck a splendid 141-ball knock of 140 before being castled by Siraj, who went on to give him an aggressive send-off following an exchange of words.
The Indian endured booes from the Adelaide crowd following the confrontation.
