Mohammed Siraj shares heartfelt Instagram post for outgoing Team India strength coach Soham Desai, calling him "guide, mentor and brother".
"Not just a trainer but someone who believed in me," Siraj writes, crediting Desai for his mental & physical transformation since 2021.
Desai pushed Siraj through tough times, instilling discipline and "never give up" attitude that shaped the pacer's international career.
"Your impact will stay with me forever" - Siraj acknowledges Desai's role in his comeback after Champions Trophy 2025 snub.
Under Desai, Siraj took 16 wickets for GT in IPL 2025. Now prepares for England Tests starting June 20 at Headingley.
Desai worked with Shastri, Dravid & Gambhir. Siraj's tribute highlights his crucial behind-the-scenes role in Team India's success.
Siraj promises "see you later" not goodbye, as both move forward - pacer to England tour, coach to new challenges.
