Who else could it be? Who else but Mohammed Siraj?

It was his catch off Harry Brook on Sunday that wasn’t, a catch that became a six when he stepped over the line, that allowed England a foot in the door in the final Test at the Oval. Brook punished Siraj and India for that lapse by going from 19 to 111, hauling his team to the doorstep of victory.

Yet, Siraj didn’t lose hope. India didn’t either, not even when the final day began with England 35 short of victory with four wickets in hand.
