However, the current commentator and former cricketer Dinesh Karthik said on the cricbage that England coach Brendon McCullum actually wanted to give this award to Mohammad Siraj.
According to Karthik, after the fourth day’s game, McCullum named Gill for the Player of the Series, and the preparation for the presentation was also done keeping Gill in mind. “If the match was over on the fourth day, Gill would take the award. But what happened on the fifth day and the way Siraj took wickets, he changed McCullum’s mind and he thought Siraj’s name, but by then everything was finalized.”
Siraj played a key role in India’s victory with 5 wickets in the second innings and 9 wickets in the match. He also became the top wickets of the series with 23 wickets. Karthik said, “If I had been asked, I would have given the award to Siraj, even if the match would have been over on the fourth day. In this tired series of 5 Tests he bowled heartily, took over the team in the absence of Bumrah and won the team.”
