Siraj accomplished this upward movement in the charts during day four of the fifth and final Test against England at The Oval. Siraj's spell on the second day was a scorching one, bowling eight overs, giving away 33 runs, and getting a crucial wicket of Ollie Pope to end the first session wi
Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting offered no clemency to Mohammed Siraj, who was the culprit of dropping Harry Brook during the final hour of the morning session of Day 4 of the fifth Test against England at The Oval on Sunday.
Fiery bowling spells from Indian fast-bowlers Mohammed Siraj, Akash Deep, and Prasidh Krishna kept the visitors still in the hunt to win the game as England finished at 164/3 after the end of the first session on the fourth day of The Oval Test on Sunday.
