HYDERABAD: India skipper Rohit Sharma’s lavish praise on Mohammed Siraj calling him a ‘rare talent’, speaks of the phenomenal rise of the Hyderabad pacer. Since his Test debut in 2020, Siraj has grown by leaps and bounds and has been soaring to greater heights with each series.
However, no matter how high he soars and how much success he attains on the various cricket grounds across the world, the 28-year-old Hyderabadi has remained rooted and grounded to his first love - the Maidan. He is fiercely loyal to the ground in First Lancer, where he started playing the game with a tennis ball and doesn’t miss an opportunity to spend time there whenever he is at home. Siraj has also not forgotten his childhood friends and makes sure that he catches up with them frequently.
