Siraj Dazzles in IPL 2025: The Comeback Every Fan Loved!

In a thrilling IPL 2025 match, Mohammed Siraj made a big impact right after Phil Salt hit a gigantic six off him, measuring an impressive 105 meters. But Siraj quickly bounced back by taking two wickets in a row, showing off his amazing bowling skills.

First, he bowled out Devdutt Padikkal with a fantastic delivery that knocked over the stumps. Just moments later, he got Phil Salt out in the same way, sending the stumps flying again with his speed and precision. This left the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) team in trouble.

Siraj had been part of the RCB team for seven years but was not kept in the team before the 2025 season. He joined the Gujarat Titans after being bought for Rs 10 crore in the mega auction. Many fans felt emotional watching Siraj play against his old team—some were happy for him, while others wondered why RCB let him go.

On social media, fans and cricket experts went wild with excitement, sharing memes and posts celebrating Siraj’s performance, and “Miyan Bhai” even trended on X (formerly Twitter).
