Indian fast bowler Mohammed Siraj has risen to prominence with his fiery pace and ability to swing the ball both ways. Born in Hyderabad, Siraj faced several hardships in living his dream of representing his country.

Siraj played a crucial role in India's 2023 Asia Cup triumph, dismantling Sri Lanka with a sensational six-wicket haul in the final. While he is a mainstay in India’s Test team, the pace has played equally impactful roles in white-ball cricket.

In IPL, Siraj made a splashing entry in 2017 and went on to scale new heights every season, transforming into a lead pacer for his IPL team.

Mohammed Siraj emerged in 2017 making his IPL debut after being acquired by Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at a price of INR 2.6 crore. He caught everyone's attention with his raw pace, scalping 10 wickets during his maiden season. Before IPL 2018, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) signed him, and he has been a key member of their bowling lineup ever since.

At RCB, Siraj transformed into a premier fast bowler under the guidance of Virat Kohli, especially excelling in the 2020 and 2021 seasons. His ability to bowl in the powerplay and death overs made him RCB’s lead pacer. 

As a result, he was retained by RCB in 2022 for INR 7 crore and continued to be their strike bowler until 2024. Before the mega auction in 2025, RCB released Siraj and Gujarat Titans picked him up for a whopping price of INR 12.25 crore.
