Dubai, Sep 27: India pacer Arshdeep Singh linked his success in the Super Over against Sri Lanka in the Asia Cup Super 4s match to his ability to nail the wide yorkers.
Arshdeep was taken to the cleaners by Sri Lanka batters Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Perera, getting smashed around for 26 runs in two overs here on Friday.But the left-arm pacer came back well and conceded just two runs in the Super Over, and also took the wickets of Perera and Dasun Shanaka.“My feeling was that.we got hit in the Power Play, but everyone chipped in later and took the game to Super Over. My plan in the Super Over was clear – bowl wide yorkers, and make them (SL batters) score on the off-side,” said Arshdeep in a video posted by BCCI.
The plan worked to perfection as both Perera and Shanaka were caught at deep point. (PTI)
