On Sunday, April 6, Sunrisers Hyderabad locked horns against Gujarat Titans at the Rajiv Gandhi international stadium. The visitors won the toss and opted to field first, asking SRH to bat first. 

Notably, SRH, who are in a dire need of win, got off to the worst possible start as Mohammed Siraj struck twice in the powerplay to leave SRH crippled. Notably, Siraj bowled three overs in the powerplay and he got rid of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma. 

With the two scalps, Siraj entered an elite list as he also completed 100 IPL wickets. He achieved the feat with Abhishek Sharma's wicket as he became the 26th bowler in the league's history to breach the 100 wicket mark. 

Overall, he is the 12th Indian pacer to have 100+ wickets in IPL. Talking about Siraj's stats then he has achieved the feat in his 97th match.
