Mohammed Siraj entered Test cricket during the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia, where he was handed his debut in the Boxing Day Test at Melbourne. The pacer, who was brought on as the third-change bowler in the first innings, impressed with figures of 2 for 40 from 15 overs.
Bharat Arun said that it was extremely challenging for Mohammed Siraj, describing it as a “five-star jail.” Arun stated that having someone physically present to comfort him would have meant a great deal during that difficult period.
“But that was it. There's nothing like human touch. Shoulder to cry on, at that point, would have meant a lot to Siraj, but there was no shoulder to cry on,” he added.

“He got on a video call, and I spoke to him, then we asked him, ‘Would you like to go back?’ Ravi told me that it is so far away, so what can be done now? Siraj then told me that it was his father's dream to watch him play Tests. He said, ‘I will stay here. ’ I thought that was outstanding,” said Arun.
