[Watch] Mohammed Siraj cleans up Shahrukh Khan with absolute corker, pulls out Cristiano Ronaldo celebration in GT vs RCB IPL 2024 match
Mohammed Siraj bowled an absolute corker to clean up Shahrukh Khan in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 match between Gujarat Titans and Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday, April 28.
With that, the speedster ended Shahrukh's power-packed outing. The right-hander smacked 58 runs off just 30 balls in an innings laced with five sixes and three boundaries.
The dismissal came in the 15th over of GT's innings. Siraj bowled a full-length ball tailing back into the right-hander. Shahrukh cleared his left leg but was beaten by the sheer pacer and movement. The ball passed the gap between bat and pad to crash onto the leg stump.
Siraj came up with Cristiano Ronaldo's trademark 'Siuuuuu' celebration as he ended the 86-run third-wicket partnership between Shahrukh and Sai Sudharsan.

Mohammed Siraj would look to deliver more with the ball after managing just six wickets in nine matches this season so far.
