Mohammed Siraj Honours Virat Kohli with Framed and Signed Jersey

Indian cricketer Mohammed Siraj has paid tribute to his idol and former teammate, Virat Kohli, by displaying a framed and signed jersey gifted to him by Kohli. The autographed jersey, worn by Kohli during his final Test match, symbolises the mutual respect and camaraderie between the two players.

The jersey was gifted to Siraj after the fifth Test of the 2024–25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Sydney, where both teams wore pink-themed jerseys to support the McGrath Foundation’s cancer awareness initiative. The match was significant for Siraj, as he achieved a five-wicket haul in the second innings, helping India secure a narrow six-run victory.

Siraj and Kohli share a strong bond, forged during their time together at the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). Kohli supported Siraj's early career, and the young cricketer considers Kohli his idol and superhero, often expressing deep admiration for him.

The framed jersey in Siraj’s home recently went viral on social media, highlighting Siraj’s affection and respect for Kohli and commemorating Kohli’s retirement from Test cricket. Siraj earned his debut in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia due to his impressive performance in the 2020 IPL season. Currently, Siraj is back in his hometown of Hyderabad.
