Prepared secret weapon like this
Siraj used to bowl inswing earlier, but later as the hold on this art weakened, he developed the outswinger. Later slowly worked on the wobble-seam delivery. The seam position from which Siraj bowls is for a natural outswinger. Siraj says that when I use this seam, the position of the ball tilts towards fine leg. While doing this ball, I apply a lot of force to hit the deck, because it is more effective. In the absence of Jasprit Bumrah, Siraj now gets more chances and has proved himself every time. Now this secret ball of his is being considered as his biggest weapon.
