The lethal left arm speedster Arshdeep Singh was taken to the cleaners in the 2nd T20I match. Arshdeep Singh conceded 37 runs in his short spell of 2 overs. The management needs to have a word with him as he is one of the key pacers in the line up. We should not forget that Arshdeep has the knack of picking wickets but needs to work on his economy rate.
Head coach Rahul Dravid & skipper Suryakumar Yadav will have to play out of their skin to beat South Africa in the 3rd T20I match as the Proteas are looking unstoppable. The side made a statement in the 2nd T20I match that they won’t give India any freebies and the visitors will have to work hard.
Arshdeep Singh has looked a little off-color- Zaheer Khan
Zaheer Khan was having an interaction with Cricbuzz. Zaheer Khan pointed out that the outfield was quite wet which didn’t help Indian bowlers during the run chase against Proteas. Zaheer Khan stated that Deepak Chahar can be an option in place of Arshdeep Singh in the near future.
“One must not forget that after the rain, there was a lot of water on the outfield, and the seam was getting wet. So, it is like having a day you have seen so many times in cricket in this format. When there is dew, the bowlers do struggle,” said Zaheer Khan.
“It was one of those kinds of combinations, to add to that, 15 overs, with 10 wickets in hand, you will any day prefer it to 180 or 190 to be chasing down. It is not about 30 added runs; it is about that much pressure on the batters,” he stated.
“They might consider him. It just gives you a bit more balance with the bat also. That means you can have more freedom at the top. That is something they might think about. Arshdeep Singh has looked a little off-colour,” he added.
