[WATCH] Rohit Sharma presents special ring to Mohammed Siraj for contributions to T20 World Cup 2024 triumph

The five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) will be taking on the Gujarat Titans (GT) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Tuesday, May 6. Ahead of the clash, the former Indian T20I skipper Rohit Sharma presented a special ring to pacer Mohammed Siraj in recognition of his contributions to India’s triumph in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 campaign. The heartwarming moment was shared by the BCCI and the video went viral.

India lifted the T20 World Cup trophy after 17 years by displaying all-around performances throughout the tournament. The pacer featured in three matches during the USA leg of the campaign, but was later benched for the West Indies fixtures as the team chose an extra spinner and brought in Kuldeep Yadav.
