Team India’s young pace bowler, Arshdeep Singh, is all over the news after his sensational bowling performance against the USA. The left-arm pacer ran through the USA’s batting line-up, picking up four wickets and giving away just nine runs in his four overs.
Arshdeep further revealed his success mantra on the New York wickets, which gave a lot of assistance to the pace bowlers. Arshdeep said that he kept everything under control and let the ball do the talking.
In India’s clash against the USA, Arshdeep looked in great touch as he picked up a wicket on the very first ball of the American innings. Later on, in the same match over, he picked up another wicket, giving team India a magical start.
Speaking at his post-match presentation, Arshdeep thanked Team India for backing him through thick and thin.
Arshdeep Singh said, “Very happy with the performance. In the last two games, I gave up a few more runs and wasn’t happy with that. The team always shows belief in me and keeps backing me; I had to deliver for them. The wicket is very conducive to fast bowlers, and it’s helping us get some seam movement.”
When asked about his plans with the ball, Arshdeep Singh said that he kept everything simple as there was too much help for the bowlers already on the pitch.
Arshdeep Singh said, “The plan was simple: pitch it in the wicket and let the ball do the talking. Don’t give easy balls to score; our batsmen are also facing difficulties scoring runs. The plan was to hit the hard road. In conditions like this, you can use the wicket more. When you are playing international cricket, you need to have some routines, and the way you take care of your body counts. All the bowlers have done extremely well, and I look forward to doing the same in the next leg as well.”
Team India has advanced to the Super 8 stages of the game with this victory over the USA. However, there is still one match left for Team India to play against Canada, but it is unlikely to happen as rain threatens the game.
