Indian fast bowler Mohammed Shami has strongly defended his teammate Arshdeep Singh after former Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq questioned the young pacer’s ability to generate reverse swing during the T20 World Cup 2024.
Inzamam’s comments came after India’s Super 8 match against Australia, where Arshdeep played a crucial role in India’s 24-run victory by taking three key wickets.
Despite Rohit Sharma being named Player of the Match for his explosive batting, Arshdeep earned praise for his spell, which included the dismissals of David Warner, Tim David, and Matthew Wade. Inzamam expressed skepticism over Arshdeep’s reverse swing, suggesting that it is unusual for a bowler to achieve such movement as early as the 14th or 15th over.
