MI vs PBKS: WATCH - Arshdeep Singh Clatters Stumps Into Two Pieces To Send Tilak Varma And Nehal Wadhera Packing

The 31st game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 took place between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The visitors displayed a staggering performance and clinched the nail-biter by 13 runs to mark their fourth win of the season.

It’s fair to say that the main highlight of the game was the last over by Arshdeep Singh. The PBKS pacer shattered the hopes of MI fans and bowled exceptionally well to win the game for his side. While chasing the target of 214, the hosts were cruising through the target and it seemed that they would pave their way to an easy victory.

What caught the attention of many was his two wickets in the final over. Arshdeep bowled two staggering deliveries that saw the middle stump breaking into two pieces. He bowled two exact same full balls that swung. Both Tilak Varma and Nehal Wadhera got themselves lost their shape and the ball went on to hit the middle stumps, clattering it two times in two balls.

MI vs PBKS: “Feels good whenever I take wickets,” Arshdeep Singh after his staggering bowling 

Not only in the last over but Arshdeep Singh bowled exceptionally well in the game. He conceded just 11 runs and took 3 wickets in the last 2 overs and returned with the figures of 4/28.

Speaking at the post-match presentation, Arshdeep Singh said that he’s enjoying his cricket and is happy that his team won. He added:

“Feels good whenever I take wickets. Right now I feel even happier as the team won. I have shortened my run-up as it helped me with the no-ball problem and I am enjoying my cricket at the moment. Danny (Morrison) you should come and stand next to me (when bowling the final over), the heartbeat is not even close to 120.”

Punjab Kings will be next seen in action when they will take on Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in their next match on Friday (28th April).
