Team India seamer Arshdeep Singh poked fun at fellow teammate Mohammed Siraj following the latter's heroics on Day 5 of the fifth Test against England at the Kia Oval Cricket Ground in London. With Siraj seemingly wanting to share a simple post on X after winning, Arshdeep Singh asked to share a reel and said, 'Sab sikhaana padta hai bowling ko chodkar'.
Siraj, 31, carried nerves of steel to propel India to one of their most famous Test wins at The Kia Oval. The right-arm pacer ended the match with nine wickets, including a fifer in the second as the tourists sparked a remarkable comeback to seal a six-run victory.
Watch the below video as Arshdeep asked Siraj to share a reel with words 'Pressure? What Pressure?' In addition, the left-arm seamer stated:
"Sab sikhaana padta hai bowling ko chodkar." (Have to teach him everything, apart from bowling.)
The Hyderabad-born cricketer had made amends for his blunder at fine leg on Day 4 when he took the catch off Harry Brook's bat but stepped on to the rope, thereby conceding a six. Although Siraj held on to the catch offered by Brook again when he was on 111 but England were on the doorstep victory.
But the visitors triggered a jaw-dropping collapse as England ended up eventually losing by six runs in pursuit of 374.
"He is a captain's dream" - Shubman Gill on Mohammed Siraj
At the post-game presentation, visiting skipper Shubman Gill said he was in awe of how the 31-year-old kept giving his everything in every ball, spell and Test to lead India to success.
"He [Siraj] is a captain's dream, every ball, every spell he bowled he came all out and gave it everything for the team. Both teams coming into Day 5 not knowing who would win shows how passionate both teams were and how hard everyone has played."
Had the hosts successfully gunned down 374, it would have been the highest successful run-chase at The Oval.
