Team India will be riding high on confidence after their bowling unit blew away Sri Lanka's batting in the Asia Cup 2023 Final at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Sunday, September 17. Leading the pack was Mohammed Siraj, who took six wickets, including four in one over, to break multiple records on the cricketing pitch.

In five overs, the Lankans were reduced to 12/5, courtesy of the ferocity of the Indian bowlers. Of these five wickets, Siraj bagged four and conceded just one four as well. But before the pacer conceded his first runs of the match, he had already bagged three wickets and was on a hat-trick because a hilarious moment ended the wicket-falling streak of the Lankans.

Siraj bagged five wickets in just 16 deliveries. It was absolutely incredible scenes at the R Premadasa Stadium as Siraj single-handedly stunned the home crowd and everyone watching on television. The right-arm pacer got an extended spell from captain Rohit Sharma and he delivered the goods yet again. In the 12th over, Siraj once against struck timber and sent Kusal Mendis packing to the dressing room.
