Mohammed Siraj has once again proved why he is a fan favourite, not just for his fiery spells on the pitch but for his grounded nature off it. The Indian fast bowler recently delighted a young supporter by commenting on a tribute reel, using a playful phrase that blends a classic Indian compliment with his trademark celebration. Mohammed Siraj and AP Dhillon Recreate the 'Spider-Man Pointing Meme' As They Meet During One Tour of India Concert in Pune (See Pic).

The addition of "Siu" is a direct reference to Siraj’s on-field persona. A massive fan of Cristiano Ronaldo, Siraj famously performs the Portuguese star’s "Siu" celebration after taking a wicket.
