Siraj accorded rousing reception
HYDERABAD
India fast bowler, Mohd Siraj, who was a member of the victorious T-20 World Cup team in Barbados last Saturday, arrived to a warm reception at the Hyderabad Airport on Friday evening.
Large number of fans gathered at the airport to greet Siraj,who had a tough time wading through them to get into his vehicle.
Later, there was a victory procession from Sarojini Devi Hospital (Mehdipatnam) with a large banner of Siraj put up along the route.
Fans lustily cheered him, waving the tri-colour.
Speaking on the occasion, Siraj said there were a lot of tense moments in the final. “But we were all excited and delighted to win the Cup eventually,” he said.
“It is a proud moment also for all Hyderabadis who are so passionate about the sport,” Siraj said.
