“His ability to control…”: Former England player says facing Mohammed Siraj is always a challenge for batters

With 23 scalps to his name, Siraj emerged as the highest wicket-taker in the just-concluded Test tour of England, playing a key role in India holding the hosts to a 2-2 draw in an intensely fought five-match series.

“Siraj has been outstanding in the England series. The energy, aggression, and consistency he brings with the ball is world-class. He’s matured into a genuine match-winner for India, and it’s always a challenge for batsmen facing him,” said Moeen in a release from GFS Developments.

“What impresses me most is his ability to control the ball. He’s got a big heart and never backs down – that’s what makes him so special. Credit to him for the impact he’s making,” he added.

Siraj played all five Tests against England and bowled a staggering 185.3 overs.
