Mohammed Siraj continued his remarkable red-ball form by claiming the Impact Player Medal for his outstanding contribution in the recently concluded India vs West Indies 2025 Test series. The Indian pacer, known for his fiery pace and relentless consistency, played a pivotal role in helping India dominate both Tests of the series.

Siraj’s ability to extract movement even on less responsive pitches proved to be the key difference between the two sides. In the first Test at Ahmedabad, he ripped through the West Indies batting lineup with a devastating spell that broke their top order early. His sharp in-swingers and subtle seam movement left the Caribbean batters struggling to cope.

Recognition and Team Praise for Siraj’s Consistency

Following the series victory, the BCCI shared a heartwarming video from the dressing room where wicketkeeper N Jagadeesan presented the Impact Player Medal to Siraj amid loud cheers from his teammates. The fast bowler was visibly emotional and thanked the support staff for trusting his process and helping him evolve as a strike bowler.

His precision with the new ball and discipline with the old one earned him praise from senior players including Rohit Sharma and Ravichandran Ashwin, who hailed him as the “heartbeat of India’s pace unit.”

With this award, Siraj’s stature as one of India’s premier fast bowlers continues to grow. As he now prepares for the upcoming ODI series in Australia, fans and selectors alike will hope his rich vein of form extends into the white-ball season as well.
