Mohammad Siraj was subjected to racial slur again at the SCG on Day 4 on Australia-India Test series.
Following Bumrah's and Siraj's complaint of racial abuse by fans a day earlier, the latter was subject to such slur on Day 4 of Sydney Test by the SCG crowd one again.
Mohammed Siraj has been targeted with alleged abuse again, leading to cops evicting a section of fans on Day 4 of Sydney Test.
India's stand-in captain Ajinkya Rahane reported it to on-field umpires Paul Reiffel and Paul Wilson before Siraj was spotted talking to members of Cricket Australia.
Indian players Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah have been targeted with racial abuse at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
Siraj wasn't able to hold back his emotions while singing the national anthem.
Siraj, who took five wickets in the debut Test in Melbourne, further said that the ball is coming on to the bat quite well at the SCG.
Siraj had lost his father on November 20, about a week after Indian contingent landed in Australia.
Mark Waugh, Adam Gilchrist, and Mike Hussey not pleased with Warner's technique following his return to international cricket post injury lay-off.
The Indian pacer removed the veteran Aussie opener, who was making a reutrn after an injury lay-off, for cheap in the third Test before rain interrupted play.
Rahane, who scored a brilliant century in the first innings to lead India's revival after they were reduced to 116/4, said going in with five bowlers worked well.

Paying credit to Bumrah for helping him get through his Test debut, Siraj said the presence of a senior is always helpful.
26-year-old Siraj lost his father Mohammed Ghaus, on November 20, around a week after the Indian team landed in Australia.
Siraj, last month, had lost his father when he was training in Australia. He would have missed the Melbourne Test had he returned home in Hyderabad.
Ashwin was brought into the attack in only the 11th over while debutant fast bowler Mohammed Siraj was not given the ball until the second session.
Mohammed Siraj, who earlier claimed Marnus Labuschagne for maiden Test wicket, bowled series of outswinger to utlimately committing Cameron Green to an inswinger.
Siraj removed Marnus Labuschagne 2 run short of his half century as Australia lost half of their side within 150 runs and second session of the opening day.
The 26-year-old Hyderabadi has played in ODIs (1) and T20Is (3). He had made his first-class debut in 2015 and has taken 152 wickets in 38 matches so far.
While Kohli's absence can never be really compensated for, Rahane would like to show his character by promoting himself up the batting order.
