T20 World Cup: 'Arshdeep Over Siraj', Kumble's Pick If India Opt For 2 Specialist Seamers
T20 World Cup: Former India spinner Anil Kumble said he would pick Arshdeep Singh over Mohammed Siraj if the Rohit Sharma-led side opts for two specialist seamers going forward in the T20 World Cup.
Arshdeep claimed his career-best T20I figures of 4-9 in India's seven-wicket win over the hosts USA and secured a berth in the Super 8 stage of the tournament. In the match against Pakistan, the left-arm pacer bowled a fantastic final over, picking up a wicket of Imad Wasim, as they ultimately fell seven runs short in pursuit of a 120-run target.
"I think the way he bowled that last over against Pakistan, and also the way he can bowl in different areas in the T20 game, I think certainly puts him ahead of Mohamed Siraj. If at all India takes that option of going with just the two seamers and Hardik Pandya," Kumble said on ESPNCricinfo.
