“A very happy Diwali to you all, from us,” Arshdeep posted on X.
Arshdeep began the ongoing five-match ODI series with an impressive four-wicket haul before returning figures of 0/16 in seven overs in the second ODI.
In the preceding five-match T20I series, the left-arm pacer claimed six wickets at an average of 31.50, with best figures of 2/33. During the series, he also became the first Indian pacer to reach the milestone of 150 wickets in T20I cricket.
