Indian pacer Arshdeep Singh began his innings with a massive six against Bangladesh in the 2nd T20I . After registering a seven-wicket win in the series opener, India hosted the Bangla Tigers in the second game of the series at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. The game saw Bangladesh skipper Najmul Hossasin Shanto win the toss and invite the hosts to bat first. India, who have had the upper hand in the series thus far, got off to a shaky start as the top three batters departed at 41/3.
When the situation was about to go out of hands, youngsters Rinku Singh and Abhishek Kumar took steering in their hands and came up with their respective fifties. Reddy came up with a powerful knock of 74 runs off 34 deliveries and Rinku Singh added 53 runs in 29 deliveries to the overall score. Hardik Pandya and Riyan Parag came up with 32 and 15 runs, respectively.
Arshdeep Singh hits massive six on first ball of his innings
Indian pacer Arsdheep Singh came out to bat in the last over of the Indian innings after Varun Chakaravarthy’s dismissal. He smashed the first ball for a maximum off a Rishad Hossain delivery. The Indian bowler went down and slog swept the delivery to the left of deep mid-wicket. However, the bowler couldn’t continue his powerful form as he was dismissed by Hossain.
Hossain bowled it short on the middle as Arshdeep got on the back foot in an attempt of pull shot. However, he ended up swinging the bat a bit early, which led to the ball taking a top edge landing directly into the hands of wicketkeeper Litton Das. India posted a total of 221 runs with a loss of nine wickets from 20 overs.
