In a remarkable display of skill and resilience, Mohammed Siraj proved his mettle as a key figure in India's pace attack during their recent England tour. Despite India's depleted lineup, with Jasprit Bumrah participating in only three of the five tests, Siraj rose to the occasion.

India managed to draw the series 2-2, largely thanks to Siraj's relentless performance. He bowled an impressive 185 overs, took 23 wickets, and forced 283 false shots from the English batsmen. His performance earned him the title of the highest wicket-taker in the series.

The fast bowler's tireless energy and aggression received accolades from various quarters, including England coach Brendon McCullum and former India captain Virat Kohli. Siraj's commitment to the team's success, as he stated, was fuelled by his desire to give everything for his country.
