Plan Was To Challenge The Batters To Score Off Tough Balls, Says Arshdeep Singh
Arshdeep Singh: Before the first ODI against South Africa on Sunday, India’s left-arm fast-bowler Arshdeep Singh had no wickets in the format against his name. But the script changed for way better against Proteas, as Arshdeep took career-best figures of 5-37 in ten overs, setting the base for the eight-wicket demolition of the hosts.
Apart from Arshdeep, right-arm pacer Avesh Khan also wreaked havoc on South Africa by taking a superb 4-27 as the fast-bowling duo took out nine Proteas’ wickets inside first 17 overs, thus rendering the match to a foregone conclusion.
Arshdeep credited the simplicity of the plans and asking for batters to score off tougher deliveries as keys for bowling a devastating spell on a used pitch at the Wanderers. "The plan was to just keep it simple, hit good areas, extract some bounce and look for a little movement off the seam."
