Mohammed Siraj is an Indian cricketer who plays as a right-arm hasty bowler for the Indian national team. He also plays for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League and Hyderabad in domestic cricket.
Mohammed Siraj registered his career-best figures of 6-15. Shardul Thakur (7-61) and Harbhajan Singh (7-120) both gain seven-wicket hauls in South Africa, but of every Indians, no bowler had conceded as few while taking five wickets in the country. Mohammed Shami had taken 5-28 at Johannesburg in 2017/18. Among Indians, Siraj needed the eighth-fewest balls to hold five wickets (47) and the second-fewest to six wickets (53). The records rest, in that order, with Harbhajan (27) and Jasprit Bumrah (37). Siraj’s 6-15 are the second-best figures by any bowler in the first session of a Test match, after Stuart Broad’s 8-15 at Nottingham in 2015.

Neophyte Believer
Capitalism, the ogre of those protesting Wall Street, has suffered a public relations crisis in the wake of the global economic collapse. But any remedy to the systemic corruption that led to the collapse should not displace recognition that capitalism creates wealth. Capitalism, and no other economic system, has raised millions from poverty around the world. – Kathleen Parker
Legacy
It Started with Cave Art: PR goes back to the earliest days of civilization. From communicating through cave drawings to Egyptian pharaohs’ “sacred carvings” and Greek noblemen learning rhetoric from sophists, communications management is an age-old practice.
