Bhuvneshwar Kumar On Young Indian Pacer: “…Best Thing About His Game” Arshdeep Singh knows what to bowl at different stages, according to senior pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and this is the best part of his game.
After being hit for a couple of boundaries by opening batter Kyle Mayers, young India pacer Arshdeep Singh showed great resolve in the first T20I of the five-match series against West Indies. The left-arm seamer dismissed Mayers before taking another wicket later in the game to finish with figures of 2-24. Senior pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar addressed a virtual press conference ahead of the second T20I, heaping praise on Arshdeep.
“Arshdeep knows what he wants to do when he bowls, and he also knows what fields he wants for different batters. This is a very rare quality, when someone is this young, this quality is rare. He’s been consistent, and he knows what he wants. The way he thinks about the game is the best aspect of his game “during a virtual press conference, Bhuvneshwar said

Bhuvneshwar Kumar On Arshdeep Singh: “…Best Thing About His Game”
Bhuvneshwar Kumar responded to a question about his bowling and performances this year by saying: “To be honest, I haven’t changed anything about my bowling; it was simply a matter of bowling more. When you bowl more, you gain confidence and regain your rhythm. Bowling improves when you stay fit. I haven’t made any significant changes. I used to bowl whenever I had the chance at home.”
Suryakumar Yadav opened the batting alongside Rohit Sharma in the first T20I. When asked about the relocation, he stated: “I honestly don’t know. But I can say it was not a random move, there was thought behind it. I’m sure they’d like to get something out of it.”
The seamer also stated that the game has evolved significantly since his debut, and as a result, bowlers have added new bowling variations to their arsenal in order to fool batters.
“There have been many changes since my debut. 300 was not a par score when I first started, especially in ODIs. However, 300 is currently a passing grade. In T20Is, every team knows that 180-190 is a target. So this has been a significant shift; as the game progresses, bowlers and batters will continue to evolve “Bhuvneshwar stated.
“There have been modifications. I learned a few variations, such as knuckle ball, which I learned to bowl a couple of years ago. Every bowler has different variations; previously, we knew that batters would take their time, but now they rush after the bowlers right away “He continued.
