EnglishSiraj's surprise call-up leads to a stunning World Cup debut
Mohammed Siraj got a surprise call from skipper Suryakumar Yadav to join the T20 World Cup 2026 squad as a last-minute replacement. In the opening match against the USA, he shone with figures of 3-29, leading India to a 29-run victory. While he's thrilled about his World Cup debut, he might have to step aside for the returning Jasprit Bumrah in the next game against Namibia.
