Mohammed Siraj posts cryptic 'broken heart' Instagram story

Mohammed Siraj took to his Instagram and shared a mystifying story. The post contained a broken heart emoji to leave fans wondering about the reason for the cryptic post. While the fans were sent into a frenzy upon viewing the pacers' story on the internet, many are trying to find the actual reason behind the upload. Currently, the netizens are trying to connect the dots and demystify the actual reason behind Siraj's cryptic Instagram story.

Recently, many cricketers, especially from the Indian team, shared similar posts across their social media handles. While Siraj’s story followed suit, the reason behind the upload remains unknown. However, people have speculated that the ace pacer shared his disappointment over the ongoing Rohit Sharma-Hardik Pandya strip.

Notably, Rohit was removed from Mumbai Indians’ captaincy, as the Baroda-born cricketer was given the role. Sharma had been the captain of the five-time champion side for a decade and played a pivotal role in making the franchise it is today. 

After the move, MI lost over 500K followers within a day on their Instagram. However, connecting Siraj’s update to MI row seems a bit off, as he himself features for Mumbai rivals Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League.
