Siraj sealed his status as one of India's premier bowlers in overseas conditions, bowling an inspirational spell in tandem with Prasidh Krishna, which saw England collapse from 317/4 to 367 all out. 

When India stood in dire need of a wicket on the final day of Anderson-Tendulkar trophy series, Siraj rose to the challenge and struck the decisive blow and even elongated his spells for a smoother rotation. In the absence of the world's best Jasprit Bumrah, who was restricted to three Tests, the 31-year-old took the responsibility of being the leader of the pacers pack. 

On the final day of the fifth Test, England stood 35 runs shy of gunning down the 374-run target and clinching a 3-1 series win with four wickets in hand. Siraj's relentless spells, with sharp nipping deliveries, served as the beacon of India's six-run victory at The Oval for ages. The success that Siraj "deserved" left Brook and England "devastated" after settling for a 2-2 draw.
