IND vs SA: [Watch] Gautam Gambhir abuses Arshdeep Singh as he bowls five wide balls in an over in New Chandigarh

Arshdeep Singh gave away 54 runs in the four overs that he bowled in the second IND vs SA T20I.

It hasn’t been a great homecoming for Arshdeep Singh at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur, New Chandigarh, where the second India vs South Africa T20I is taking place on Thursday, December 11.

Arshdeep Singh, who was magical with the ball in the last match, looked out of sorts in the ongoing second match. He was taken for cleaners right from the start and this put him under pressure with Quinton de Kock counter-attacking him.

After giving away 20 runs in his first two overs, Arshdeep Singh was brought back into the attack in the 11th over. But things turned worse for him as he delivered yet another poor over, which was laced with extras as he bowled a 13-ball over.

The pacer bowled seven wides in the over and after he delivered a fifth wide, head coach Gautam Gambhir fumed and was visibly unhappy. He was seen abusing Arshdeep Singh. The video went viral on the internet with many lashing out at the head coach for his antics.

Quinton de Kock shone with the bat, hammering 90 runs, while Donovan Ferriera (30*) and David Miller (20*) also contributed lower down the order as South Africa posted a massive total of 213 runs on the board. 

For India, Varun Chakravarthy was the pick of the bowlers with his figures of two for 29. India lead the five-match series after winning the opening match by a margin of 101 runs.
