This festival, which epitomizes the bond between siblings, saw a unique celebration involving Indian pacer Mohammed Siraj and Zanai Bhosle, granddaughter of legendary singer Asha Bhosle. A video capturing this special moment has taken social media by storm.
In the touching video, Zanai is seen tying a Rakhi on Siraj’s wrist, symbolizing their brother-sister relationship. The video was a collaborative post by Zanai and Siraj, with Zanai captioning it, “Happy Rakhi. Couldn’t have asked for better.” This public display of affection dispelled earlier speculations about their relationship status, affirming their sibling-like bond.
Siraj’s Stellar Performance in England
Beyond personal celebrations, Siraj’s professional achievements have also been noteworthy. During India’s tour of England, Siraj emerged as a standout performer in Test cricket. He topped the wicket charts with 23 wickets across the series, showcasing his resilience and skill over more than 185 overs. His performance was particularly crucial as he stepped up when fellow pacer Jasprit Bumrah was rested due to workload management.
Siraj’s exceptional performance in The Oval Test earned him career-best ratings of 674 points in the ICC Men’s Test Bowler Rankings. His efforts were recognized as he climbed 12 places to secure the 15th spot in the rankings, marking his highest-ever position.
This combination of personal joy and professional success highlights a significant period in Siraj’s life, resonating with fans and followers worldwide.
