Mohammed Siraj has joined Team India for the 2nd ODI against New Zealand. Siraj might get an opportunity to play in the ongoing India-New Zealand ODI series.
He played his last ODI against the West Indies on 3, October 2026 in New Chandigarh. In this match, he bowled 8 overs, taking 1 wicket and conceding 52 runs. Siraj played 51 ODIs for India and took 77 wickets. Siraj made his ODI debut vs Australia at Adelaide.
The second ODI will be played at the Basin Reserve in Wellington on November 7. The third match is scheduled for November 10 in Hamilton, while the fourth and fifth ODIs will take place on November 13 and 15 in Mount Maunganui.
He has represented India in many bilateral ODI series and major international tournaments. He has also played alongside Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami and other Indian fast bowlers in different formats.
His bowling figures include performances with both the new ball and the old ball. Siraj has also contributed during the middle overs, where controlling the scoring rate and taking wickets are important aspects of the bowling attack.
India's pace-bowling options for the New Zealand ODI series include Arshdeep Singh, Anshul Kamboj, Gurnoor Brar and Mohammed Siraj. The team management can select its bowling combination according to the pitch conditions, opposition batting order and match requirements.
Siraj's return to the ODI squad ahead of the Wellington match gives India another option in the fast-bowling department. His selection for the second ODI will be confirmed when India announces its playing XI before the match.
