Its a small thing but I noticed this in the 1st test, when a day was ending bumrah and siraj were bowling in pair. Siraj was looking more threatening, bumrah had bowled his over and instead of letting siraj bowl the final over as 3 minutes were left, we gave the ball to jaddu so that bumrah can bowl another over. That just tells siraj that you are not good enough to take the wicket. How is he going to get the confidence to do anything when the team doesnt trust him. While bumrah was not playing this didn't happen and siraj got the trust of the captain.
