Enthusiastic fans welcomed Indian bowler Mohammed Siraj on Wednesday at RGI airport of Hyderabad. The pacer landed in his hometown after a stellar performance in the intensely contested drawn Test series against England.
The pacer was the leading wicket-taker in the five-match series. He played all five games and bowled a mammoth 185.3 overs.
The 31-year-old Mohammed Siraj, along with the team’s fielding coach T Dilip, first landed at
Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport terminal from London before heading to Hyderabad.
He was dressed in black casuals, and a small group of fans gave him a joyous welcome.
There were requests for selfies and autographs in Mumbai, but Siraj quickly trooped into a car and left for the domestic terminal to catch the connecting flight to Hyderabad city, where he was once again greeted by a group of adoring fans.
