Rohit Sharma, the captain of Team India, recently presented Mohammad Siraj with a special T20 World Cup winning ring. This ceremony took place before a match between Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans at the Wankhede Stadium. Siraj had missed the official presentation of the ring during the BCCI’s Naman Awards, and Rohit made sure to honor him for his contribution to India’s successful T20 World Cup campaign.

In a video shared by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Rohit spoke about Siraj’s importance to the team, saying, “We missed you at the function.

The ring is a customized piece of jewelry that includes Siraj’s name, jersey number, and an Ashok Chakra symbol. This gesture was a way to celebrate India’s first major victory in a decade, as they won the T20 World Cup by defeating South Africa in Barbados. It marked the country’s return to the top after their 2013 Champions Trophy win. The team members, including Siraj, were celebrated for their excellent performances during the tournament.
This win was particularly emotional as it came just after the announcement of several key players, including Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Ravindra Jadeja, retiring from T20 internationals. Despite some tense moments in the final, including a period when South Africa needed just 30 runs from 30 balls, India held their ground to secure the win.
