“9.5 out of 10 points. Mohammed Siraj definitely played different roles. He bowled with the new ball and also as first change. But the strength he showed, the courage he displayed, the fitness he demonstrated, I think it’s commendable. He became everyone’s favorite after this series. Even English fans praised him. When the opposition team appreciates you and talks about your character, it means there’s something special about you.”

“What’s special? Giving everything for the team, that’s special. You bowl even when you’re down on one knee. On the 25th day of a Test series, you bowl at a speed of 145 km/h. That means you know this is the moment where you have to give it your all. It doesn’t matter if you get injured. It doesn’t matter how many balls you’ve bowled. Whenever Siraj comes on to bowl, he completely executes the captain’s plan. It was a joy to watch him bowl. Made the heart happy,” he added.

Overall, the Hyderabad pacer has played 41 matches, taking 123 wickets in 76 innings at an average of 31.05 and a strike rate of 52.1, with five five-wicket hauls to his name.
