Mohammed Siraj delivered a match-altering performance in the fifth Test against England, with his aggressive bowling dismantling the opposition's innings on Day 2. Former Indian pacer Varun Aaron praised Siraj's resilience and wicket-taking mentality, which helped India regain control of the match.
Despite a challenging start, where England raced to 92 without loss, Siraj's fiery spell yielded remarkable figures of 4/86. His ability to execute the wobble seam delivery effectively was pivotal, especially in breaking England's middle order and securing three LBWs and a bowled wicket.
India's reply began cautiously, and at the close of play, they stood at 75/2, with Yashasvi Jaiswal unbeaten on 51. Siraj now tops the series wicket-taker chart with 18 scalps, justifying Aaron's belief in his tireless energy and relentless pursuit of wickets.
