Mohammed Siraj's five-wicket haul in the second innings of the Oval Test guided India to a nail-biting victory to finish the tour with a 2-2 score-line.

As the teams came to the field on the final day, England looked like slight favorites to clinch the series 3-1, with the dangerous Jamie Smith still batting and 35 runs needed.

Like Edgbaston, Siraj once again shouldered the responsibility in Jasprit Bumrah's absence and got Smith to nick a delivery outside off to the wicketkeeper, Dhruv Jurel.

Siraj bowled in great rhythm all morning and trapped Jamie Overton in front of the wickets, a close umpire's call on a wobble-delivery that came in with the angle to hit the batter's pad went India's way.

To finish off, he bowled a low full toss straight at the wickets to dismantle Gus Atkinson's off-stump, having been hit for a six in the previous over.

As the bowler took 3 wickets in the morning for 15 runs, see how he imitated football star Chloe Kelly's famous celebration after the match.

WATCH! Mohammed Siraj recreates Chloe Kelly's Euro-winning celebration

The England and Arsenal Women's forward had recently scored the winning penalty in the shootout of the Women's Euro 2025 to beat the World Champions, Spain.

A day after scoring a high-pressure final penalty of the shootout, Kelly's video addressing the fans, "Pressure? What pressure?" took the internet by storm.

Similarly, with the back against the wall, Siraj performed once again in a crucial match to save the series, having put his body on the line to reach the 25th day of the series.

In the latest video posted by the BCCI, left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh was seen persuading Siraj to recreate Kelly's video and post a reel on Instagram.
