The second match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) was played in Mohali, in which Nitish Rana’s Kolkata Knight Riders were in front of Shikhar Dhawan’s Punjab. Although there was a shadow of rain in this match from the beginning to the end, the rain also spoiled the game.
Due to the brilliant fifty of Bhanuka Rajapakse and the excellent bowling of Arshdeep Singh, Punjab captured this match by 7 runs. Bhanuka came to bat at number three and was the top scorer for the team, hitting 50 runs off 32 balls. At the same time, Arshdeep Singh took 3 wickets for 19 runs in 3 overs.
This bowler took the KKR opener Mandeep Singh’s wickets, number 3 batsman Anukul Roy and all-rounder Venkatesh Iyer’s. Due to his fantastic bowling, he was finally awarded the Player of the Match award.
However, something happened during the match that made Arshdeep angry, and he went straight to confront the batsman. When Anukul Roy was dismissed on the last ball of KKR’s second over, Arshdeep stared at him as if he was about to face him. In such a situation, its video is now going viral.
Anukul Roy hit a four on the third ball after playing his first ball dot. Arshdeep probably did not like this thing, and after taking the wicket on the next ball, he was seen staring at Anukul for a long time.

Genuine Reason For The Fight
After the match, when Arshdeep was asked what the real reason for the fight was, then Arshdeep said that he had been my batch mate in Under-19 cricket. He first stared at me, so I also wanted to show him my enthusiasm, so I started staring at him. The players thought I would bowl a yorker, but I surprised them with a bouncer.
Let us tell you that this 23-year-old bowler made his debut in white ball cricket for India in the T20 World Cup last year. In such a situation, this bowler has been doing wonders for the previous few seasons. Kagiso Rabada was unavailable for the Saturday match, so Arshdeep did not let his absence be felt.
