Arshdeep Singh Strikes Twice In An Over, Cleans Up Andy Balbirnie With A Beauty In IND vs IRE T20 World Cup Clash- WATCH

Arshdeep Singh Strikes Twice In An Over: Left-arm speedster first induced a leading edge from Paul Stirling before producing a beauty to remove Andy Balbirnie off the last ball of his second over.

India have got off to a flying start in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024. Captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and elected to field first in their first fixture of this ICC event at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York, inviting Ireland to have a bat first. The decision, as it seems, has proved to be beneficial for India with the Men in Blue taking early wickets to put pressure on the opposition.

Left-arm speedster Arshdeep Singh helped India draw first blood. He struck twice in his second over to give India an opening after which the Irelands could not recover as well as they would have liked. Arshdeep first induced a leading edge from Paul Stirling that was grabbbed by wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant before producing a beauty to remove Andy Balbirnie off the last ball of the same over.

With 2 runs and 2 wickets falling in the same over, Ireland were reduced to 9/2 after 3 overs. The video of Arshdeep rattling the stumps of Balbirne surfaced on social media.

Meanwhile, India seemed to have taken a bold call in the T20 World Cup 2024. With Yashasvi Jaiswal's form not too bright in IPL 2024 and Virat Kohli winning the Orange Cap, opening the innings for his franchise- the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in this season, seems like India will trust their most experienced duo of Rohit Sharma and Kohli to open the batting.

Although India are yet to bat in the IND vs IRE match, the team has not selected Jaiswal, hinting Kohli could come out as an opener along with Rohit in this match.
