Mohammed Siraj has a fan in Bollywood
We know who's going to play Mohammed Siraj in a biopic. Actor Ranveer Singh seems to have been following the Test series closely and he had one word for Siraj's performance in the second Test: "Phenom".

India bask in the glory of their Lord's win
Fast bowler Mohammed Siraj took career-best figures of 8 for 126 in India's exciting win at Lord's. VVS Laxman reminds us that he had spotted Siraj pretty early.
Met him for the first time at frmr Hyderabad great Abdul Azeem's residence. And I feel so proud to see the rapid progress #Siraj has already made in intern'al cricket.

Remember Jarvo, India's unofficial 12th man, who strolled on to the field on day three of the Lord's Test, presumably to help India stop Joe Root's rampage?

Turns out he's professional prankster and troll Daniel Jarvis, who has previous convictions for sporting offenses including a pitch invasion during a Tottenham Hotspur vs Partizan Belgrade match in 2014, and an art heist prank gone wrong in 2016. Doubt he's going to be playing again after making his Test debut and retiring on the same day.
