Siraj is currently plying his trade for Warwickshire against Somerset in County Championship Division One in Birmingham.

In the first innings, Siraj returned with the bowling figures of 5 for 82 in his 24 overs, including the prized scalp of Somerset opener Imam-ul-Haq (5), who has the experience of 16 Tests, 54 ODIs, and two T20Is for Pakistan.

Siraj also got the better of Imam in the second innings. On Day 3 of the match, the Indian pacer dismissed the Pakistan batter for a five-ball duck. This time around, Imam could not decipher Siraj's away swinger and ended up getting caught in the second slip.

Here’s the video:

Coming to the match, Warwickshire were bowled out for 196, conceding a first-innings lead of 23 runs.

In the second innings, Somerset posted 277/4 on the board at stumps on Day 3, extending their lead to 300 runs with George Bartlett (91*) and Lewis Goldsworthy (44*) unbeaten in the middle.
