Arshdeep was on the money right from ball one as he got the wicket of Shayan Jahangir in the first delivery of his over with the new ball to get his game started on a positive.
He struck gold once again to get the wicket of the wicket-keeper batter, Andres Gous in the same over to make it two in his first over of the innings.
The left-arm pacer has been able to take the conducive conditions in New York to his advantage as he got the wicket of Nitish Kumar who was set and was looking to get a big innings for the USA followed by Harmeet Singh to cap off his wickets in the game against USA.
Arshdeep’s figures of 4/9 in his quota of 4 overs also make it the best-ever figures for an Indian bowler in the T20 World Cup. The previous record was held by the experienced Ravichandran Ashwin who got 4/11 in 3.2 overs against Australia in the 2014 edition in Mirpur, Bangladesh.
