      Rohit Sharma presenting the T20 World Cup champions ring to Mohammed Siraj.

In a heartfelt gesture, Rohit Sharma, the captain of India's T20 World Cup-winning team, presented Mohammed Siraj with his T20 World Cup champions ring, acknowledging Siraj's significant contributions during the tournament.

Siraj played a crucial role in India's early matches in the USA, particularly noted for his exceptional fielding. He was awarded the 'Fielder of the Match' medal by Yuvraj Singh after India's victory over the USA.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) had earlier presented the champions rings during the Naman Awards. However, Siraj was unable to attend the ceremony. Recognizing this, Rohit Sharma personally handed over the ring to Siraj, stating, "This is for Mohammed Siraj. He was due at the function and played a vital role in our T20 campaign. So, I'm proudly presenting him a very special ring."

The ring is a diamond-studded piece featuring the player's name, jersey number, and the Ashoka Chakra, symbolizing India's triumph in the 2024 T20 World Cup.
