Siraj was also named the player of the series for his heroics. In the ongoing first Test match of the IND vs WI series, Siraj claimed four wickets and dismissed the likes of Tagenarine Chanderpaul, Alick Athanaze, Brandon King and West Indies skipper Roston Chase. The star Indian pacer has now gone past Mitchell Starc and Nathan Lyon in the list of bowlers with most wickets in 2025.
