Ben Stokes throws his bat as Mohammed Siraj roars in delight after dismissing him caught behind for 20 in ENG vs IND 2025 1st Test [Watch]

England captain Ben Stokes was livid with himself after India pacer Mohammed Siraj dismissed him caught behind on Day 3 of the opening Test in Leeds on Sunday, June 22. The left-handed batter was caught by wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant, perishing for 20 runs off 52 deliveries as the hosts lost half their side for 276.

The dismissal came in the 65th over of England’s first innings. Siraj bowled a length ball from around the wicket that nipped away, and Stokes wanted to play it a lot squarer. The southpaw tried to guide it towards the point region but found a thick edge that carried to the keeper. With his first dismissal, Siraj broke the 51-run partnership between Stokes and Harry Brook for the fifth wicket. The speedster roared in delight before celebrating with his teammates.
