Former India coach Ravi Shastri praised Mohammed Siraj's exceptional bowling in the final Test against England at The Oval. Siraj took 4 crucial wickets, restricting England's lead.
Shastri highlighted Siraj's consistent effort and lion-hearted performance throughout the series, especially in Bumrah's absence. He emphasized Siraj's energy and the development of his outswing, making him doubly dangerous on helpful surfaces.
Siraj's performance at The Oval solidified his position as the leading wicket-taker in the series with 18 wickets. He also became the first Indian bowler with multiple four-wicket hauls in Tests at The Oval.
“He's bowled like a lion... in this series, in Test matches, even when Bumrah is not there, he's given his heart out.”
