S8E3 | Mohammed Siraj | Breakfast with Champions ft Gaurav Kapur |

It was his father's dream to see him in cricketing whites, red ball in hand. Siraj lived out this dream, riding a rollercoaster from the alleys of Hyderabad to a famous MCG Test debut.
Join Siraj in this conversation with Gaurav Kapur where he talks about the people who shaped his journey, his highs and lows - which included almost quitting the game in 2020, the miracles he has experienced and of course, why his colony Toli Chowki almost got renamed Kohli Chowki.
This episode tastes best with a Hyderabadi Biryani with a side of Double ka Meetha.

"Ghar liya to sukoon aaya ki kuchch kiya life mein", - how relatable is that!! Thanks to Gaurav kapoor for getting us to know the real people behind the stars.. Keep going, Siraj, keep the hard work going, keep the flag high..

[@bhagyashreerao5237]

IPL and 20-20 format almost ruined his career but Test cricket showed us who he is actually. Thank you Test cricket, the real cricket. Siraj is one of my inspirations.

[@zahednow]

But as seen from this interview his career started because of IPL as net bowler. Also before his test debut he already made a mark with his outstanding bowling in IPL match against krk in Abu Dhabi

[@ankarbiswas2676]

From constant 4 over 40 runs in IPL to being the Top 3 Indian bowler in test cricket and No. 1 bowler in ODIs, the journey of Miya bhai from the streets of Hyderabad to the pinnacle of Indian cricket, he is already an inspiration for many. May you continue to prosper Siraj Bhai. Your humbleness, energy, hardwork is a great story in itself.

What nonsense. Selectors picked him in the squad because he was the best bowler in domestic cricket at that time.Virat kohli is not selector. Virat was captain who used the skills of Siraj in Australia.

Please don't judge him by his attitude on ground and for a moment look in his eyes...like how pure he is❤ Lots of love siraj bhai 💯

[@iamdartagnan]

A bowler has to have some aggression especially a fast bowler. No one doubts his talent. The only thing I am critical of him is he takes aggression too far. Remember we use to hate this when Australians and English cricketers did to us? Now all of a sudden it's right because few of our players are doing it? You don't need to be aggressive to become great and there are so many examples for it and not against it.

[@LozilNoronha]

Each and every minute of Mohd. Siraj's story is inspiring. I used to kind of mock him when he had economy of 11. I am happy he proved me wrong. Long way to go champ. Inshallah you will contribute big in winning WTC and WC. I am inspired by you. ❤
