Mohammed Siraj has had a disappointing international career so far

Mohammed Siraj, on the other hand, has struggled in international cricket. Siraj has played three T20Is and just one ODI. In three T20Is, he has taken three wickets but bowled with an insipid economy rate of 12.33. He is yet to take a wicket in the ODI format. His last international appearance was against Australia in January 2019.

RCB retain Mohammed Siraj for IPL 2020

Mohammed Siraj has been retained by Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Bangalore for Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020. He has taken 28 wickets from 26 games in IPL across three seasons since he made his debut for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in 2017. RCB would hope that Mohammed Siraj can replicate some of his good form with the white ball in IPL 2020. The franchise will look to end their 12-year wait for the coveted trophy.
