Mohammed Siraj has won the hearts the Royal Challengers Bengaluru fans with his exceptional recovery spell towards the dying minutes of the game. Leading the pace attack, Siraj’s spell was detrimental in helping Punjab Kings post a mere total of 176/6 after 20 overs. With his spell, Siraj makes a strong case to partner Jasprit Bumrah in the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup.
After giving away 18 runs in the opening spell, he made a sensational recovery. In the end, Siraj bowled exceptionally well to bag 2 wickets. Siraj has been relatively poor in T20s since 2022. But with T20 World Cup in the horizon, Siraj is back to his very best.
Mohammed Siraj’s exceptional spell led RCB’s fans to regale themselves in ecstasy. With no Mohammed Shami, there has been considerable doubts as to who will be the second pacer in the team. With Jasprit Bumrah leading the charge, Siraj’s exceptional performance today will make a strong case for him in the team.
Siraj’s form in T20Is has been a concern for both the India Cricket Team and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. But his performance in RCB vs PBKS clash will be a big boost for the two teams. Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma will be hoping that the Hyderabadi pacer continues his majestic form till the ICC T20 World Cup.
