In the first innings on the third day of the second Test match, Siraj made England’s most dangerous batsman Joe Root his victim on the third ball of the 22nd over. When the root was out, he was playing 22 runs and almost frozen at the crease. Siraj threw a length ball towards the leg side, which Root wanted to play towards the fine leg, but the ball took the edge of the bat and went into the hands of wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant and his innings was over.

After Root was dismissed, captain Ben Stokes came to the crease and Siraj did not let him open the account and sent him back to the pavilion by dismissing the fourth ball of the 22nd over. Siraj threw Stokes short ball and in an attempt to play it, he gave his catch to Pant. The English captain was dismissed on Golden Duck in the first innings. Siraj took 2 wickets off 2 balls in the 22nd over, but he failed to complete his hat -trick.
