After playing a crucial role in Team India's victory on Day 5 of the fifth Test match against England, Mohammed Siraj opened up about his fielding lapse on the previous day.

The five-match Test series between Team India and England ended in a 2-2 draw.


The official social media handle of Team India posted a video in which Siraj expressed himself after the victory in the fifth match. The pacer was falling short of words to describe his feelings.



"To be honest, I can't describe my emotions right now," he said. Taking to Instagram:

He then opened up about the catch that he dropped during the match.

"Because yesterday, when I was thinking about that catch last night, I mean, how could I do that? If I had taken that catch, we wouldn't have been here today. We would have been in the room, relaxed," said the 31-year-old pacer.

"God must have thought of something. I must have done something good. That's why he brought it today, and you can see, the result is right in front of you," he added.

Despite dropping a catch, the pacer revealed that he woke up the next morning with a feeling that he could do the job for Team India. He also said that he searched for an image of 'believe' on the browser and set it as his wallpaper.

"When I woke up this morning, I had a feeling inside that I can do it. I can change the game. Because I had so much belief, that's when I went to Google, took out a picture of 'believe', and put it on my wallpaper, that I can do it," said the Hyderabad-born.

Mohammed Siraj gave a special mention to his 'Jassi Bhai' by saying that he would have had a different presence in the game.

"I miss him, Jassi (Jasprit Bumrah) bhai because he would have had a different presence," said the 'Player of the Match'.

"Yeah, exactly. I believe in Jassi bhai and myself," he signed off.

Bumrah missed out on the fifth and final Test match as he was provided the rest by the management, considering his workload.
