Don’t Anticipate Arshdeep Singh Being Part Of Playing 11 For 2nd T20I, Feels Parthiv Patel
Melbourne Cricket Ground: Former wicketkeeper-batter Parthiv Patel believes that pacer Arshdeep Singh, who missed out on the T20I series opener in Canberra, will remain out of the playing XI for the second T20I against Australia on Friday.
Arshdeep was overlooked for the opening match as Harshit Rana was preferred, alongside pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah and pace-bowling all-rounder Shivam Dube. The 26-year-old Punjab pacer was part of the ODI series and played in the first two matches before being dropped for the final ODI in Sydney. He only took three wickets across the two games.
Regarding Arshdeep getting a chance to feature in the playing XI of the second T20I in Melbourne, Patel said on JioStar’s ‘Cricket Live’, “Based on the current strategic direction and selection philosophy of the Indian team management, I genuinely don’t anticipate Arshdeep Singh being part of the playing XI for the second T20 International in Melbourne."
