Speaking at the trailer launch event of ‘Bandon Me Tha Dum’ by Voot Select, Siraj said that he has faith in his abilities and he will definitely make a strong comeback in white-ball cricket.

“I don’t look at things like that. I agree that this year my performance hasn’t been great. In the previous two years, when I performed so well with the white ball…that was also Siraj, and this is also Siraj.
