The 26-year-old pacer won hearts when he stayed back with the team after his father passed away on November 20, a week after the Indian contingent arrived in Australia. He was given the option of flying home to attend the burial of his father, but Siraj chose to stay back in Australia.

He was also subject to racial abuse from a section of spectators during the third Test at Sydney Cricket Ground.
