After winning the toss and deciding to bat first, the Proteas struggled to score runs as Indian bowlers gave them no space to breathe, consistently chipping in with quick wickets.

Siraj was well supported by Bumrah and Mukesh, who each scalped two wickets.

The Hyderabad bowler claimed the wickets of Aiden Markram, Dean Elgar, Tony de Zorzi, Bedingham, Verreynne, and Jansen to grab his six-fer.

His fans in India are leaving no stone unturned in praising him on social media platforms, particularly X, formerly known as Twitter.
