Legendary pacer Brett Lee has shed light on India fast-bowler Arshdeep Singh’s no-ball spree, saying that he completely lost it in that T20 game against Sri Lanka. Arshdeep bowled five no-balls including a hattrick of no-balls in Pune.
Speaking on his Youtube channel, Lee said no ball is a bowler’s worst enemy and causes mor mental agony than anything else.
“No ball is a bowler’s worst enemy. Nothing costs a bowler more mental agony and embarrassment than a no ball because you not only have to bowl an extra delivery, you give the license to the batter to do anything he/she wants,” said Lee.
He said a bowler can do magic if they’re in good rhythm but can also look helpless once that rhythm is lost.
“It’s a dagger through the bowler’s heart. Rhythm is a funny thing. A bowler can do magic if he/she has it but it makes you look hapless and helpless once that rhythm is lost,” Lee added.
“I saw India’s Arshdeep Singh completely lose it in that T20 game against Sri Lanka a few days back. He bowled no ball after no ball after no ball. 5 no balls in that game. It would be a hard pill to swallow for him. He only bowled two overs conceding 37 runs. And he was returning to the side after being sidelined with an injury. He overstepped three times in a row in his second over,” said Lee.
