A Slow Start to the Tournament

Arshdeep Singh, who's 25, had something to prove when he came into the match. People were doubting his skills because his first few games weren't great. Singh only got 1/67 against Nagaland and 2/48 playing against Karnataka, which were not very good. But, in a vitally important moment, this fast bowler stepped up and showed everyone how good he is by bowling an unforgettable spell.

Early Strikes Set the Tone

Right from the beginning, Arshdeep demonstrated his excellent skills and got Angkrish Raghuvanshi out in the very first over; this was very difficult for Mumbai since everyone knows their batters are normally faultless. With the early loss of Angkrish, the team struggled to keep currently facing Arshdeep's spot-on bowling and the manner he made the ball dance around then, he got Ayush Mhatre, just when it looked as though Ayush was getting comfortable on the pitch. By the time Arshdeep finished his first group of overs, the top hitters from Mumbai were clearly changed. Mumbai had to bat first because Mumbpunjab chose to field, putting Mumbai's famous batting lineup under early pressure.

Dismissing Mumbai's Giants

Arshdeep really showed what he is like against Mumbai's top players, Shreyas Iyer and Suryakumar Yadav ,Shivam Dube. First, he managed to get Suryakumar out, who's known as one of the best limited-overs players for India, in just five balls with an amazing delivery then, not long after, he delivered a superb ball that took out Iyer, right after he scored 17 runs in 17 balls; the manner he bowled showed he's got major skill and he was very serious about what he was doing.
