Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj had a great outing in the 2023 ICC Cricket Cup. He was one of the consistent performers for India in the World Cup with 14 scalps from 11 matches at an average of 33.50 and an economy of 5.68. However, his efforts weren’t enough for India to clinch their third World Cup title, as they lost the final to Australia in Ahmedabad by 6 wickets.
Despite the loss, Mohammed Siraj was impressive in his maiden ODI World Cup and was the main player for India throughout the tournament.
Now, as the World Cup is over, the focus will be shifted to the shortest format of the game, T20. India have a T20I series scheduled against Australia, South Africa and Afghanistan respectively. Then, after a five-match Test series against England, the players will gear up for unlimited cricketing action for two months as the 17th edition of the Indian Premier League will be scheduled at that time.
