What actually happened?

Following this incident, Mohammed Siraj was visibly angry. He vented his anger on social media. Siraj posted on Twitter, “Air India flight number IX 2884 was scheduled to take off from Guwahati to Hyderabad at 7:25 am, but there was no communication from the airline, and despite repeated follow-ups, they delayed the flight without any valid reason.”

The Indian cricketer further said, “It’s really frustrating and every passenger asks this. The flight is delayed by four hours and there’s no update yet, leaving us stranded. This is the worst airline experience I’ve ever had. I really wouldn’t advise anyone to take this flight if they can’t stand it.”

Mohammed Siraj is a member of the Indian Test cricket team. He was part of the playing eleven in the Indian team’s massive 408-run defeat against South Africa in the Guwahati Test. Siraj was returning home to Hyderabad after losing the series to South Africa. He faced this flight-related problem.

Team India is scheduled to play an ODI series starting November 30th. Siraj is not part of this three-match ODI series. As a result, the players who were scheduled to play in the series left for Ranchi, where the first ODI is scheduled to be played. The remaining players who are not part of the ODI squad were about to fly home, and Siraj was one of them.
