In fact, Siraj has become only the third Indian pacer to take 20+ wickets in a Test series multiple times, after Kapil Dev and Jasprit Bumrah.

Despite hailing from the city of Hyderabad, famous for its biryani, Siraj has apparently completely removed it from his system.

"He avoids junk food and maintains a disciplined diet. Rarely eats biryani, no pizzas or fast food," revealed Siraj's father to India Today.
