This went for a rather embarrassing hat-trick; Arshdeep Singh rewrote his own record of shame

In the second India-Sri Lanka match, India won the toss and sent the opponents into bat. India entered the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in the second match with changes from the team in the first match.

Debutant Rahul Tripathi replaced the injured Sanju Samson and youngster Arshdeep Singh replaced Harshal Patel who was ruled out following a poor performance in the first match.

But Arshdeep has a bad record following joining the team. Arshdeep holds the unnecessary record of most consecutive no balls in an over in the T20 format.

Arshdeep got this bad record in the very first over of his spell. The player has scored a hat-trick by throwing three consecutive no balls. Arshdeep is also the first actor to own this bad record.

Arshdeep bowled two consecutive no balls last year.

Arshdeep conceded 19 runs in that over. Arshdeep Singh is now disappointed that he had such a bad experience in the first over of 2023.
