Mohammed Siraj goals at the Chinnaswamy stadium in Bangalore and the latest version of its trademark was a well -known look. Nowadays, Siraj points to his fingers on his chest and down on the ground, turns a little hand and turns around while screaming with his hands to bring them back side by side. He tells everyone that I stand here while adding a little Cristian Ronald.
The only thing was that this time Siraj was doing Itagainst Royal Challengers Bangalore, not for them. Siraj played for RCB with honors from 2018 to 2024, but at the Auction IPL 2025 it was bought by Gujarat Titans for the hefty crore inr 12.25. Every piece of this money would look good if he watched him to take 3 for 19 in four high -quality overs against his old franchise. In his first match back on his old home terrain, Siraj went with the players of the match and sent RCB to their first defeat IPL 2025. It was a happy return home for Siraj, not so much for RCB.
Emotions and nerves
“I was a little emotional because I played here for seven years, in the red jersey,” Siraj said after the game, adding, “Now with another color jersey was a little nervous and a little emotion. But as soon as I had the ball in my hand, it was full.”

The energy, passion and the most important skill of Siraj were exposed when the powerplay RCB derailed with the goals of Devdutt Padikkal and Phil Salt and RCB found themselves in the hole. They dug up a bit and Liam Livingstone led the way. But Siraj also laughed there, in the 19th place Snaring Livingstone to keep the RCB at 169 for 8. Titani easily persecuted it, at 17.5 overs, but while the dough also played great, the foundation laid Siraj.
Over time, the game was well used
Siraj found himself from the Indian trophy side, and perhaps it was a blessing in disguise, because it gave him a brass room to sit and work on bowling. It has always been a rhythmic pitch, but when you play day after day in all three formats, natural stress and unmissable fatigue can break the best of them.
Siraj took advantage of his time away. “I was constantly playing matches, so I didn’t realize the mistakes I made. Now I got a break, so I focused on my fitness and bowling,” he said.

He added: “It was also mentally good to work on my fitness. After connecting to GT, I talked to Ashubhai (Ashish nera, coach GT). There can be no more confidence booster.”
Bittersweet Reckoning for RCB
The fact that Siraj still holds a kind place in the hearts of RCB fans and his past teammates and coaches was warm that he welcomed him in Bengalur.

RCB coach Andy Flower said after the match that he wanted to be the greatest success for Si, but repeated that despite defeat, RCB had a faith in a group that was chosen for the auction.
“Siraj bowed very well, is it? It’s great to come here and do it,” Flower said. “I thought he bowed the excellent charm there with the new ball.
As for the Siraj himself, he showed his old franchise and his old fans – as well as his new franchise and his fans – that he was well and really stands on Earth wherever he can be.
