Was under pressure, says Arshdeep Singh

Johannesburg, Dec 17: Arshdeep Singh did feel the pressure of coming into his fourth career ODI without a wicket under his belt and now has a moment to savour for a lifetime after getting a maiden five-for in India’s one-sided win against South Africa on Sunday.
Arshdeep took 5/37 as the Proteas were bowled out for 116 and he looked a bit exhausted, having been blissfully unaware that Wanderers is located at a higher altitude and he ran out of breath after the first four overs.
“I was under a bit of pressure because I never took any wicket in ODIs before. Was happy to get a fifth (five-wicket haul). The wicket had purchase early on and the plan was to get some LBWs and bowled,” the left-arm seamer told the broadcasters during the innings break.
He had bowled one-change in the recent T20I series and here he looked lethal with the new ball.
The Punjab lad said that his success and that of the team was all about adaptability. (PTI)
