Siraj is the best performer among the 3 players on the list. The Hyderabad-based pacer was sold to his state team in the IPL for INR 2.6 crores. But he justified his price tag by picking 10 wickets in 6 matches. He hails from a very down-trodden family. His father is an auto-rickshaw driver. But now the wheels of fortune have started rotating.Siraj is for obvious reasons extremely delighted to perform

Siraj is for obvious reasons extremely delighted to perform on such a big stage. “Mera toh duniya hi badal gaya hai (My world has changed). This IPL means a lot to me,” exclaimed Siraj.

Siraj also is looking to buy a house at first. He wants to present a better style of living to his parents. “The house hunting has started. With the money coming in, I want to gift a better life to my parents, and that’s the primary objective now,” said the speedster while speaking to Sportstarlive.
