Watch: Arshdeep Singh's Brilliant Bowling In County Championship Goes Viral

Indian pacer Arshdeep Singh is currently only playing white-ball cricket for Team India. He is expected to return to the Indian squad in the upcoming white-ball series against England starting from February 22.

In a recent video on Twitter, Arshdeep's brilliant bowling was on display when he bowled an unplayable delivery to the left-handed batter. The left-arm pacer’s inswinger, which shattered the stumps of a helpless batter, is being hailed as one of the finest deliveries seen in recent times. The clip of this sensational ball has gone viral, and fans are left wondering why Arshdeep was not part of India’s squad for the 2024 Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) in Australia.

Arshdeep's brilliant bowling left the commentator awestruck as he lost for words during commentary. “Oh, knocks him over. That’s a beauty from Arshdeep Singh. Top of off, bails flying, and that swung back in as well, wow!” 

Meanwhile, the left-arm pacer's current form with the ball has led Indian fans to question his absence from the recently concluded Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The Indian bowling attack was led by Jasprit Bumrah in the series. Alongside him was Mohd Siraj, Akash Deep and Praisdh Krishna. Bumrah finished with 32 wickets in the series. Siraj finished with 20 wickets but was inconsistent and did not support Bumrah well.

Fans Question Arshdeep Singh's Absence From BGT

The Indian fans however feel that Arshdeep should have been included in the series and that would have been a great addition to India. On Twitter, fans have been vocal, asking, “Why was Arshdeep not in BGT?”

One of the other fans said “I don’t understand why BCCI is ignoring him in Tests and ODIs. Man delivered in back-to-back T20 WCs and also was the highest wicket-taker of the 2024 T20 WC.” 

Another fan, reflecting on the power of Arshdeep’s bowling, added, “Why this guy is not playing Test matches is beyond my imagination. Left-handed, fast, natural swing. Will be a great option with the red ball.”

India lost the Border-Gavaskar series 3-1 and lost out on making the WTC final for the third time straight. Australia on account of their series win has reached the final and will face South Africa in June later this year.
