Young Indian pace sensation Arshdeep has stolen the show in the Greenfield International Stadium with his stunning performance in the first T20I against South Africa. The 25-year-old young lad has scalped three wickets in an over against the visitors. Arshdeep was introduced into the attack by the skipper Rohit Sharma in the second over of the first innings.
Indian cricket fans were left stunned after seeing the performance of the young lad. They took no time heaping their praises on Arshdeep. Notably, Singh claimed the big wickets of the Proteas team including the likes of Quinton De Kock, Rilee Rossouw, and David Miller.
Here’s how fans reacted to Arshdeep’s mind-blowing performance:

Speaking of the match so far, then the South African team is crumbling down after losing five wickets only on the score of 18 runs in the five overs. Arshdeep and Deepak have scalped three and two wickets respectively.
Looking at the bowling attack of the hosts, then they are playing with three pacers in the form of Arshdeep Singh, Deepak Chahar, and Harshal Patel. Whereas senior all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin will be there in the role of a specialist spinner alongside Axar Patel. Notably, Axar was awarded player of the series for his stellar bowling performances in the recently-concluded T20I series against Australia.
Notably, the Indian team is coming off with a sensational series win against the Aussies in the recently-concluded T20I series. Rohit’s men won the series with a margin of 2-1.
In another major piece of news for the Indian camp, senior pacer Jasprit Bumrah is not playing in the first T20I against South Africa. The 28-year-old had a complaint of back pain in the back. He was also missing out on the Asia Cup 2022 due to an injury. Later on, he returned to the three-match T20I series against Australia but couldn’t perform up to the expectations.
