"Acha hua iska baap mar gaya" RCB fans begin abusing Mohd Siraj as RR unsettles RCB in powerplay
Fans began abusing Siraj on Instagram even before match yielded any result
Bengaluru: RCB fans who were hoping for a good show of batting and bowling by their team in the second qualifier of the IPL 2022 were left heartbroken after the RR’s opening duo of Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal unsettled the RCB bowlers in the powerplay of second innings while chasing 158.
Both Buttler and Jaiswal began well and started hitting the ball to the boundary from the word go and made over 60 runs in the first six overs of their innings effectively taking the game away from RCB.
Fast bowler Mohammed Siraj who conceded the most runs in the powerplay, was soon abused and blamed by the RCB fans on his social media handles even before the match yielded any results.
Fans abused Siraj by commenting on his Instagram posts using filthy language. Some of the fans even dragged the late father of Siraj into their abuses while others abused his mother and other family members. Some of the users also called on Siraj to retire from the cricket after his poor performances.
Siraj has had a rather forgettable outing this season. On Friday during the second qualifier of the season against RR, Siraj had conceded 31 runs in two overs by the end of eighth over of the second innings.
Earlier, RCB had scored 157-8 in their 20 overs with Rajat Patidar scoring 42-ball 58. The winner of the contest between RCB and RR will face Gujarat Titans in the final of the season on May 29 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Bihar: Over 150 children fall ill after consuming 'mid-day meal' in Saharsa
Saharsa (PTI): More than 150 children were taken ill after allegedly consuming food that was part of the mid-day meal in a school in Bihar’s Saharsa district, a senior official said on Thursday.

The official said that 115 children were undergoing treatment at the Sadar Hospital, while around 50 students were admitted to Mahishi Public Health Centre.
“We received information that several children fell ill after consuming the mid-day meal in Baluaha. The children were initially treated at the primary health centre, but later, many were referred to the Sadar Hospital,” Saharsa District Magistrate Deepesh Kumar told reporters.
“According to doctors, the health condition of the children has improved, but they will be kept under observation for some time. There is no need to panic. Some kids are having mild fever. They are being treated accordingly,” Kumar said.
Meanwhile, family members of some children claimed that a snake was found in the container in which cooked pulses was stored at the school.
Of the 545 students present in the school, 200 had already eaten their meals by the time the snake was spotted, and later complained of stomach ache and vomiting, they said.
Regarding the claims, the DM said food samples have been collected from the school.
“We will be able to comment on this only after the results of the tested samples arrive,” he said.
