Indian fast bowler Mohammad Siraj is not a part of the Asia Cup 2025, but during this time a big achievement has been added to his name. Siraj has been chosen by the ICC as the player of the month of the month of August. Interestingly, he has won this award on the basis of just one match. At the same time, Ireland player Orla Presargest has been chosen as Player of the Month in women’s cricket.

Showed in the oval test

Siraj’s performance in the Oval Test played between India and England proved to be the turning point of the match. India was in dire need of victory in the last match of the series and Siraj took a total of 9 wickets in both innings, doing amazing with the ball. On the basis of his bowling, India defeated England by 6 runs and the series ended at 2–2.

Siraj’s sharp bowling did not survive the big batsman of England. He took wickets at an average of 21 and took the team out of the difficult situation several times. This is the reason that the ICC has chosen him the best player of August in view of his brilliant performance.

India’s most successful bowlers in the series

Siraj proved to be India’s most trusted bowler not only in the Oval Test but in the entire England series. He played all five Test matches and took 23 wickets. Twice he took five wickets and four wickets to take four wickets. The Indian bowling attack was also led in this Test series in Siraj.

The effect of Siraj’s bowling was that India was successful in winning the match even in a difficult situation. His spells on England’s soil were well appreciated by cricket experts and veterans.

In the Race of the ICC Awards, Siraj won the award by leaving behind New Zealand’s Matt Henry and West Indies Jayed Syels.

Siraj expressed happiness

After receiving the award, Mohammad Siraj gave his response and said that this honor is very special for him. He said, “Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy has been one of the most exciting series of my career. It was challenging to bowl against the top batsmen under England’s circumstances, but I made it an inspiration for myself. This award is my hard work as well as the team’s support staff and fellow players. I will try my best to give my best for India.”

Not in Asia Cup, but Siraj in headlines

Even though Siraj is not part of the team of Asia Cup 2025, his name is most discussed in the cricket world at this time. The strong performance shown in the same Test match gave him a big ICC Award and proved that he can become a gamechanger for India on any platform when he gets a chance.

IND vs Eng: In the fifth and last Test played at Cainington Oval, Team India defeated England by just 6 runs and drawn the series 2–2, but the view that was seen after the victory, shocked the cricket fans. After winning the match, Team India reached England’s dressing room directly, where the players of both teams were seen talking openly among themselves.

This player told the reason

Indian batsman Karun Nair himself put this point in front. According to him, after the end of the match, the Indian team did not celebrate any major celebration, but everyone went to the dressing room of the opposition team. According to Nair, “Both teams felt that the series has been one of the best Test series of recent times”, while England coach Brandon McCullum also called it a memorable series of his career.

Series journey

In the first Test played in Leeds, England won, but India made a brilliant comeback by winning the second Test. At the same time, the third match went to England’s account. The fourth match was a draw and India won in a thrilling manner in the fifth match. In the last Test, Indian bowlers completely demolished England’s batting.

Karun Nair’s return and important innings

Nair was given a chance to play in the first three Tests, but he could not play a big innings in all three matches. Due to which he was dropped from the fourth Test. Due to Rishabh Pant’s injury, he was again given a chance in the fifth Test and he scored an important innings of 57 runs in that match. Thanks to his innings, India had scored 224 runs in the first innings, in response to which England team was reduced to 247 runs.

In the second innings, India scored a huge score of 396 runs and gave England a target of 374 runs. On the last day, the hosts needed 35 runs and 4 wickets left, but Mohammad Siraj bowled deadly and gave India a historic victory by taking 9 wickets.

Now Team India will be seen playing a two -match Test series against the West Indies in October.

IND vs Eng Oval Test: The Oval Test between India and England ended even though a few days have passed, but Chris Woakes’ passion -filled innings is still in the headlines. England fast bowler and all -rounder Vox batted on the last day of the Test when his left shoulder slipped and was hurting a lot. Now, while talking to the British newspaper ‘The Guardian’, Vox has shared his pain about that moment and told that he felt at that time that his career would probably end here.

What did Vox said?

During a conversation with ‘The Guardian’, Chris Woakes said, “Never changed to land on the field. I felt that it is my duty, not only for the team, but for all those who are standing with us. I did not know how injured my shoulder is, but at that time I had to play for the team only.”

Vox came to bat when England’s team was breathing his last. His left hand was wrapped in the bandage, which he hid inside the sweater. Despite this, he fought fiercely.

Chris Woakes also admitted that when he was hurt, he also thought for a few moments that his career was not in danger. He said, “When there was a shoulder injury, it felt a moment that my career is not over, but you understand that it is not just for you. You are a part of a big thing. Everyone has hard work for it, whether it is team, fans or your family. At that time I felt that I have to fight, whatever happens, whatever happens.”

“If someone else was there, he would have done the same”

Chris Woakes said that when he landed on the field, the audience welcomed him with applause. Indian players also respected his courage. He said, “It was nice to listen to the most applause and some Indian players came and expressed respect and appreciated, but I would have been a player in my place, he would have done the same. You cannot finish the match like this after falling 9 wickets.”

How to bat?

Vox said that despite a shoulder injury, he set himself up as a left hand batter, so that the right hand does not have to be used too much. He said, “There was less pressure on the shoulder when playing with the left hand. I felt that this is the only way to escape. I played a few balls, left something, and that was the hope.”

What is update on injury?

Chris Woakes has not yet received a complete scan report of his injury. He hopes that he will recover soon, but it is also believed that he may have to rest long. This will be a major setback for England as Vox is important players of the team with both ball and bat.

IND vs Eng Oval Test: After defeating England by 6 runs in the Oval Test, the Indian team equalized the five-match series 2-2. This victory was special for the Indian team, as it was the first major Test series of Team India after the retirement of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, but despite this, the Indian players did not celebrate any celebrations after the victory and the reason behind it is surprising.

Why was the celebration not celebrated?

According to BCCI sources, even after the victory in the Oval Test, the Indian team did not do any big celebrations. The players preferred family and comfort instead of partying. In a statement to PTI, a board source said, “The team did not make any big celebration last night. It was a long and extremely tired series for all. The players chose their family or time alone instead of celebrations and some players are leaving back to India and some are spending time walking here.”

Which players immediately started home returning

Within 24 hours of the end of the match, many Indian players have taken a return flight. Mohammad Siraj, who took five wickets in the last Test, has left for Hyderabad via Dubai. Arshdeep Singh and Shardul Thakur also left on Tuesday morning flight. After reaching Dubai, all these players will take connecting flights to their respective cities.

Some players chose breaks and family

There were also some players who preferred to take a break of a few days in England instead of returning to India. Arshdeep Singh, who did not play a single match in the series, and the famous Krishna are spending time with their family on the streets of London. Kuldeep Yadav also stayed on the bench in this series, but he is also walking in London with former cricketer Piyush Chawla.

VIDEO: A video of the Indian dressing room is becoming very viral after the five-Test Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy is drawn 2-2 against England. In this video, Team India mentor Gautam is seen giving motivational speech to Gambhir players. In this video, he not only praised the players, but also shared a big vision regarding the dressing room culture of the team.

What did Gambhir say in the speech?

After India’s series draws, Indian team head coach Gautam Gambhir told the team the real mantra of victory in the dressing room after India’s historic victory at the Oval, “People will come and go, but the dressing room should be immortal. The way you all played this series, 2-2 draws is a great result. For this, you will be very good for this, we will be very good for this, we will be very good as a team. We will try to be better in the game.

Talking to the entire team, he further said, “The players will continue to go to this team, but the culture of this dressing room should be such that people should feel like becoming a part of it and this should be our greatest strength.”

Gambhir’s talk indicates to maintain a positive and motivational atmosphere inside the team, which motives the players to play in the team spirit and play in the team Spirit.

Sundar gets the ‘Impact Player of the Series’ Award

Gambhir also greeted captain Shubman Gill and said that he is fully entitled to the success of the team. He said, “Best wishes to all of you. Now you all enjoy it. You people can take a break for a few days because you do this. You have won the victory, you are entitled to this break.”

At the same time, all -rounder Washington Sundar was awarded the ‘Impact Player of the Series’ of this series, which he received by the team’s senior player Ravindra Jadeja. Sundar had impressed with both the ball and the bat in the series and brought a big impact in the game.

After receiving this award, Sundar said, “It looks good to play four matches on the ground here in England. I always wanted to perform better at such a place. As a team we have played the same match every day. The energy that was in the team, especially while fielding, we have always stood for each other as a team.”

Team India’s transition clean in Test series

This series has become a symbol of a big change for India. After the defeat to New Zealand and Australia, the Indian team was going through a major change and in such a situation, young captain Shubman Gill took the front in England. With Gill’s captaincy and Gambhir’s advice, the team not only made a comeback but also showed a new energy in the dressing room.

DSP Siraj and Shubman Gill Clash in Fifth Test: There is a very good bonding between Indian Test captain Shubman Gill and Mohammad Siraj, but the fifth Test against England also took a turn when DSP Siraj started getting angry at his captain Gill. This one mistake made in Gill’s match could have made Team India a lot, but Siraj took the last wicket and gave India a victory.

Shubman Gill does not listen to Mohammad Siraj?

Shubman Gill and Mohammad Siraj came to a press conference after India’s fifth Test, then the reporter said that you can tell about Shubman Gill whether it hears you. Two opportunities came to light between the two of you, when you told Gill that ‘you have not spoken to him’.

Mohammad Siraj, while responding to this, said that Siraj said that communication is very good between us, our relationship has been long ago. We have played together for India, this is also the captain in Gujarat Titans, so I know its understanding and when I speak, it hears it.

India overshadows a mistake

The match between India and England was stuck a lot, Team India had to take only one wicket and England had to score 11 runs, then how did Team India do to stop Etkinson from taking a run, so that the strike would come to Chris Woakes in the next over, which came to bat only with one hand due to fracture in one hand, but Dhrule Jur could not run out, but Atkinson-Vox Run Run Rash Said to ‘you did not say to him’.

Responding to this incident in the fifth Test, Gill said that yes he had spoken to me. Till I told Dhruv, he started running away and Dhruv did not get time, then he missed the run out. Then he again told me that you did not say why not to remove the gloves, then it happened. After this, both Siraj and Gill started laughing.
