In the third T20I match against South Africa, <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/photo/ind-vs-sa-3rd-t20i-hardik-pandya-completes-100-wickets-for-team-india-in-format-108705/1" rel="nofollow">Team India</a> emerged victorious by seven wickets at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamshala.
During the match, Team India bowlers showcased immense skills and bowled out the Proteas for 117 runs in 20 overs. Speaking on their performance, the hosts' bowling coach, Morne Morkel, expressed happiness.
"I am just happy how the boys bounced back," Morkel said in a video posted by 'bcci.tv'.
Completing his quota of four overs each, <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/ind-vs-sa-3rd-t20i-team-india-secure-dominating-victory-in-dharamsala-23607760" rel="nofollow">Arshdeep Singh</a> and Harshit Rana bagged two wickets each by conceding 13 and 34 runs, respectively.
Reflecting on his performance, Arshdeep joked around, remembering his spell in the previous game when the camera had turned to Morkel after the pacer's poor bowling display.
"In the last match, when I was bowling wides, the camera was panning to the coach (Morkel) very often as if he had given some faulty plan to me. I would like to say sorry to Morne and will also try to ensure that he gets less screen time," said the 26-year-old pacer.
"Whether good or bad, I always try to be a level-headed person who makes reels and keeps the dressing room atmosphere light. That's my main motivation," added Arshdeep.
On the other hand, Harshit said that he enjoys bowling with the Guna-born cricketer as he creates pressure from the other end.
"I like bowling with him (Arshdeep), he creates pressure from the other end. It is helpful for my bowling. It's my first time in Dharamsala, I enjoyed bowling here. The weather helps a lot," he said.
Batting first, South Africa lost the wickets of their openers, <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/ind-vs-sa-2nd-t20i-quinton-de-kock-reveals-reason-behind-fine-record-against-team-india-23607420" rel="nofollow">Quinton de Kock</a> and Reeza Hendricks, early in the match.
