The selectors want to see Arshdeep Singh in Test cricket as well. So far he was limited to limited overs cricket. But the selectors want to take Arshdeep in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy after his brilliant performance in the T20 World Cup. Incidentally, Arshdeep took the maximum 17 wickets in the World Cup.
According to the source, Arshdeep has continuously swung the white ball in both directions on the ground of the country. The selectors asked him to play in the Duleep Trophy. Which will start from September 5. The selectors think that Arshdeep can become a trump card with Bumrah in Australia. Besides, the selectors are looking to have one more left-arm pacer in white-ball cricket. That is why Khalil Ahmed was sent to Zimbabwe. Moreover, Khalil has also been taken in the Sri Lanka series in the ODI and T20 series.
Meanwhile, Ryan Parag has been kept on the Sri Lanka tour due to Tilak Varma’s injury. The selectors think he has talent. Parag has also changed the game. Now Parag will have to look to spend more time on the wicket. Parag is also a great fielder. Harshit Rana has also been given a chance to diversify in yorkers, slower, death overs in the tour of Sri Lanka.
