Indian fast bowler Mohammed Siraj delivered a remarkable performance during the second Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy at Edgbaston, Birmingham, on July 4, 2025. Siraj took six wickets for 70 runs, marking his first six-wicket haul in England and becoming the first Indian bowler to achieve this feat in Test matches in both England and South Africa. His spell helped India bowl out England for 407 runs in 89.3 overs, securing a 180-run lead in the first innings. This six-wicket haul is the first by a visiting pacer at Edgbaston since 1993 and ranks as the third-best by an overseas fast bowler at the venue. Siraj now has four five-wicket hauls in Tests, with three of those coming in historic wins at venues where India had never won before: Brisbane, Cape Town, and Birmingham. In the third Test at Lord's, Jasprit Bumrah also made headlines by taking his maiden five-wicket haul at the historic ground. Bumrah claimed five wickets, helping India gain command against England. He became the first Indian bowler to take 13 five-wicket hauls in Tests away from home, surpassing Kapil Dev's record for the most away five-wicket hauls by an Indian. Bumrah's performance earned him a place on the Lord's Honours Board, a prestigious milestone in cricket. His achievement was praised by England's Stuart Broad, who acknowledged Bumrah's ability to challenge the best batters in the world. Bumrah also broke Ravichandran Ashwin's record for the most five-wicket hauls in the World Test Championship.
