On August 4, 2025 it is one of those days in the Cricket that if it did not happen, you would not believe it. Night sentences, despair, the hope of a victory, everything was reduced to the first session of the ENG vs Ind 5th test in the Oval. England was 35 years after lifting the trophy, while, on the other hand, India was four WICKETS to share the trophy. Amid the tense moments of the game, Mohammed Siraj had an animated reaction to Shubman Gill and Dhruv Jurel during his 84th to Gus Atkinson. He only added to the complexity of the game, while Chris Woakes waited with the contained breathing and a broken shoulder on the other side of the fold.

The stress of the spectators who observed the game on the rectangular screens or those present in the oval had no comparison with the 13 players in the field at that time. Each ball, each field placement, the smallest of all movements, became more important than the previous one. One of those situations arose when the injured Chris Woakes was in the fold. He came out with a dislocated shoulder, unable to hit, but his wickt was as important as any of the opening batters. The responsibility was in Gus Atkinson to make races, while Woakes would simply remain in the fold.

Before 84 was delivered to Siraj, England needed 17 more races, while India only needed one more Wickt. The Over began with a ball of points in a row of a six of Atkinson. You must be in a hurry to finish the game. Three consecutive knit balls added pressure on both sides. But with an injured player at the other end and the end of the bowling to be changed between overs, anyone would aim for a single to change the strikes.

Gill and Siraj took into account this point of view and planned to play a large Yorker. The pacemaker wanted to assume the greatest benefit of a situation of exhaustion. But the failed attempt led Siraj to be visibly frustrated and disconsolate. You could see how I felt that I had lost the series for India.

Later, at the press conference, the captain and the pacemaker clarified how the lack of communication took place before preparing the stage for a wickt sooner.

“It was ours [with Shubman Gill] Planning of the last ball. [Chris] Woakes was on strike, so he said that we can also play a large Yorker, since there was also a possibility of exhaustion. There was no possibility of six because we were playing a knit ball, ”Siraj spoke with the media.

This plan also involved Jurel, but Gill was lost as the Siraj message passed.

“He [Siraj] I had asked me to ask DHRUV [Jurel] To take off your gloves and be ready for exhaustion. But when I could ask Dhruv, he [Siraj] He started running, and Dhruv had no time, and lost it. Then, he got angry and asked why I didn’t ask him to take off his gloves, ”Gill explained.

The elimination of gloves was a small but crucial moment in the game. However, the last 84 OVER ball admitted only one goodbye. Atkinson managed to change the strike.

The 85 was given to Prasidh Krishna, who began with two races. Followed by four points, Atkinson once again removed a single from the last ball.

However, Siraj took the winning wickt of the game in the first ball of the 86A to seal the victory of India.

Later, the Wicktkeeper shared a video on their social networks, applauding the bowling player.

Jurel, with one hand in Siraj, said: “I only believe in Miyan Bhai.”

The moving gesture was a modification of when Siraj had said how he believes only in Jasprit Bumrah for his performances that change the game.
