He did have issues with rhythm in the past couple of games but Mohammed Siraj's parameter of judging himself is consistency in deliveries bowled in good areas rather than the volume of wickets taken.
Siraj has so far taken nine wickets from seven games and after the Pakistan game, once again looked in rhythm during his wonderful spell of 3/16 in 7 overs as India bowled Sri Lanka for a paltry 55.
"Taking wickets is important and there is no doubt about that. But my rhythm was not consistent for the last 2-3 matches, sometimes I was in rhythm and sometimes I was not," Siraj told the mixed zone media after India's humongous 302-run win here at the Wankhede Stadium.
