India pacer Arshdeep Singh is having a great outing with the ball in the ongoing warmup game against Bangladesh in the T20 World Cup 2024. The match between the teams is underway at the Nassau County Cricket Stadium in New York.
India opted to bat first and they had a decent outing with the bat, scoring 182 runs on the board. With the ball, they were off to a flying start, thanks to Arshdeep Singh as he oozed his class with the new ball and troubled the batters with his swing upfront.
After removing Soumya Sarkar for a duck, Arshdeep Singh made sure that he provided his team with another breakthrough. The fast bowler came up with a magnificent ball and removed Litton Das to draw the second blood for Team India at the Nassau County Cricket Stadium in New York.
Arshdeep Singh bowled a nip-backer that nipped back in from a length and caught Litton Das in the crease. The batter was late in getting the bat down as he was playing with an angle as well. The ball grazed the inside edge and crashed into the top of the off-stump.
Here’s the video:
Litton Das scored 6 runs off 8 balls and with his wicket, Bangladesh were left tottering at 7/2. In his first two overs, Arshdeep Singh gave away just 2 runs and conceded 3 runs, making sure he takes his team to a dream start at the Nassau County Cricket Stadium in New York.
