‘He Stood By Us In Defeat & In Victory’: Siraj Lauds PM Modi’s Support On Eve Of His 75th Birthday
Siraj, who has become a key member of the Indian team in recent years, recalled how PM Modi’s words lifted the morale of the side after the 2023 ODI World Cup heartbreak against Australia in Ahmedabad. The Rohit Sharma-led side was denied their third title as Australia defeated the home side by six wickets to lift their record-extending sixth silverware in the format. PM Modi also applauded the team on a call after they won the T20 World Cup in Barbados last year, before hosting the side at his residence in New Delhi.
“In 2023, after our World Cup loss, Modi ji came to the dressing room & lifted our spirits with his words. A year later, when we won the T20 WC, he called to congratulate us. He stood by us in defeat & in victory- true inspiration,” Siraj said in a video post on X as part of the ‘My Modi Story’ campaign.
