Mohd. Siraj recently took a spiritual journey to Mecca for Umrah. This pilgrimage comes at a time when Siraj was notably excluded from India’s 15-member squad for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025, a decision that shocked fans and experts alike. Additionally, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) released him ahead of IPL 2025.
Despite these setbacks, Siraj remains focused on his personal growth and spiritual well-being. This marks his third Umrah pilgrimage, having previously undertaken the journey in 2019 and 2022. His decision to embark on this spiritual journey has been widely shared on social media, with fans showing their support and admiration for his resilience.

Siraj’s recent performance in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series against Australia was impressive, where he claimed 20 wickets in 10 innings, making him India’s second-highest wicket-taker in the series. However, despite his strong showing, he was not included in the national squad for the ICC tournament.
