The way Mohammad Siraj has made a comeback in IPL 2025 is commendable. Siraj was dropped from Team India, but he has created a stir in this season of IPL. Siraj, who joined the Gujarat Titans team after leaving RCB, is seen in a different color this time. His hunger for taking wickets is visible. He has become the bowler to take the most wickets in the power play this season. He has taken 7 wickets in the power play in 5 matches of this season. He played a major role in Gujarat's victory. Siraj bowled brilliantly for Gujarat Titans against Sunrisers Hyderabad. He took 4 wickets for just 17 runs.
Fast bowlers have wreaked havoc in the power play.
This season, fast bowlers have wreaked havoc on the batsmen in the power play. Apart from Mohammad Siraj, Chennai Super Kings' Khaleel Ahmed has taken 6 wickets in 5 matches. Apart from this, Shardul Thakur of Lucknow Super Giants has also taken 6 wickets in the same number of matches. Delhi Capitals fast bowler Mitchell Starc has taken 4 wickets in three matches, RCB's Josh Hazlewood has taken 4 wickets in 4 matches and Sunrisers Hyderabad's Mohammed Shami has taken 4 wickets in 5 matches.
Siraj had completed 100 wickets in the IPL.
Siraj took his 100th IPL wicket in the match against Hyderabad. His hard work is behind his brilliant performance this season. He was not selected in the team for the Champions Trophy 2025. He was a bit upset with this, but he did not give up and made a great comeback. Mohammed Siraj was an important part of India's ODI team till last year but he did not get a place in the 15-member team of the Champions Trophy. In the Champions Trophy, Team India showed more confidence in spin bowlers and included only two fast bowlers, Mohammed Shami and Harshit Rana in the team.
Shami played all the matches, while Harshit got a chance to play in only two matches. A few days ago, Siraj had said that he was a little disappointed at not being selected for the team. He also said that his family and friends supported him a lot during this difficult time. Because of this support, he was able to perform well. Siraj is in great form in IPL 2025. He has taken 10 wickets in 5 matches at an average of 15.00 and an economy rate of 7.89.
