Harry Brook Statement on Mohammed Siraj: Mohammed Siraj became the hero of victory by hitting a four in the second innings against England.
Harry Brook Statement on Mohammed Siraj IND vs ENG 5th Test: England needed only 35 runs on the last day and India had to take four wickets. Many did not believe that the Indian team would win the match from this point but Mohammed Siraj had come with something else in mind and he did what cricket lovers will remember for years. By taking three out of four wickets, Siraj gave India a miraculous victory by six runs and a tie in the series. With this, one of the toughest and most dramatic series of recent times came to a great end. Siraj, who put a 'Believe' emoji wallpaper on his phone in the morning on the last day of the match, took five wickets for 104 runs in 30.1 overs.
Mohammad Siraj hugged Chris Woakes expressing sportsmanship after the victory and after that this picture went viral on social media. In the last Test match played between India and England at the Oval, when the injured Chris Woakes came on the field holding a bat in one hand, this picture became immortal in the pages of history forever.
Harry Brook praised Mohammad Siraj a lot
Siraj took nine wickets in the match and was the hero of India's six-run victory. With this win, India drew the five-match series 2-2. Harry Brook (Harry Brook on Mohammed Siraj), who was chosen as the England team's 'Player of the Series' by India's head coach Gautam Gambhir, said, "I thought we would win easily but the way Siraj bowled, he deserved this success. He performed brilliantly in the series and also finished it."

At the other end, Prasidh Krishna (four wickets for 126 runs) also supported him well and eventually England's team fell short of the target of 374 runs and India leveled the five-match series 2-2. England batsman Harry Brook had imagined an easy victory for his team on the final morning of the fifth Test on Monday, but he admitted that Indian fast bowler Mohammad Siraj's bold bowling dashed the hopes of the host team.
