Mohammed Siraj has been making news since the last Indian Premier League, when he was picked by Sunrisers Hyderabad for 2.6 crore. Now he's back in the limelight again - for making his debut for the men in blue. He played his first T20I against New Zealand at the Saurashtra Cricket Stadium, where he went for 53 runs and picked one wicket.
