Dhruv Jurel brought a light-hearted moment to India’s celebratory mood as he shared a fun video with Mohammed Siraj, the architect of India’s thrilling win in the fifth and final Test against England at The Oval. The clip, featuring Jurel hailing Siraj as “Miyaan bhai,” came after Siraj’s match-winning five-wicket haul that sealed a remarkable 2-2 series draw for India under Shubman Gill’s leadership.
On the final day, England needed just 35 runs with four wickets in hand. Momentum was with the hosts, but Siraj had other ideas. From his very first over, he bowled like a man possessed. With Jasprit Bumrah rested due to workload management, the responsibility of leading the attack fell on Siraj, and he delivered a masterclass.

He got the ball to talk right away, making it seam and swing with precision. His over to Jamie Smith was electric, each delivery threatening, each moment suspenseful. Soon after, Siraj trapped Jamie Overton with a clever nip-backer after setting him up with deliveries outside off. He was relentless, showing control, aggression, and sharp cricketing intelligence.
Prasidh Krishna provided the perfect support at the other end, trapping Josh Tongue LBW to reduce England to nine down. But it was Siraj who applied the finishing touch, firing a scorching yorker that shattered Gus Atkinson’s off-stump and sparked scenes of celebration.

Jurel, who stepped in for the injured Rishabh Pant in the final Test, summed up what many Indian fans were feeling. “I only believe in Miyaan bhai,” he said with a smile, as Siraj laughed beside him. The camaraderie, belief, and resilience on display reflected a team that refused to back down—and Siraj stood tall as the warrior who made it possible.
