‘Ruthless From Miyan,’ Fans Go Crazy As Mohammed Siraj Takes Six Wickets Helping India Bowl Out South Africa For 55 Runs

Mohammed Siraj took six wickets vs South Africa 2nd Test.

Mohammed Siraj was breathing fire in Cape Town where the South African batting lineup was ripped apart from the Indian pacer in the second and final Test of the series between India and the Proteas. The hosts were bundled out for 55 runs in the first innings as Siraj took six wickets giving away just 15 runs in the nine overs he bowled.

This is not the first time Siraj has single-handedly caused mayhem. Recently in the Asia Cup 2023 final against Sri Lanka, Siraj took a sixer to help India lift the trophy. Fans on social media went crazy after the Indian pacer showcased his bowling skills against South Africa on Wednesday (December 3).
