On one hand, Ravichandran Ashwin was trapping Bangladeshi batsmen in the web of his spin bowling in Chennai, while about four and a half hundred kilometers away, left-arm young fast bowler Arshdeep Singh was wreaking havoc with his swing. On Sunday, the performance of both these bowlers resulted in the same result - their team's victory. In Chennai, Team India defeated Bangladesh by 280 runs, while in the last round match of Duleep Trophy, India D, captained by Shreyas Iyer, also defeated India B by a huge margin of 257 runs. The star of the team's victory was Arshdeep Singh, who, like Ashwin, bowled lethally and took 6 wickets, which also included big batsmen like Suryakumar Yadav and Abhimanyu Easwaran.

Like the India-Bangladesh Test, the last round of Duleep Trophy matches started on 19 September. On the last day of this match played in Anantapur, India D scored 305 runs in their second innings. This included a brilliant century by Ricky Bhui. He played an unbeaten innings of 119 runs in just 124 balls. India D had also got a lead of 67 runs in the first innings. In this way, 373 runs were needed to win in the remaining 2 sessions of the last day. Now achieving such a big score seemed difficult, in such a situation the chances of the match being drawn were high but Arshdeep Singh did not let this happen.

Surya also failed in front of Arshdeep

This left-handed pacer, who missed out on a place in Team India for the second Test as well, along with his fellow fast bowler Aditya Thackeray, bowled out the entire team for 115 runs in just 23 overs. These two bowlers bowled the entire 22.2 overs for India D. During this, Arshdeep raised his team's hopes of victory by taking the big wicket of India B captain and experienced batsman Abhimanyu Easwaran, who scored a century in the first innings. Then soon he also took the wicket of India's T20 captain Surya (16). Surya, who is playing red ball domestic cricket with the hope of returning to the Test team, has suffered a setback. He failed in both innings.

wreaked havoc by taking 6 wickets

Arshdeep took 3 out of 5 wickets of India B's top order and then sent the last 3 batsmen back to the pavilion in 3 consecutive overs, giving Team India a memorable victory. Arshdeep took 6 wickets for 40 runs in 11.2 overs. On the other hand, young batsman Mushir Khan, who scored a century on his Duleep Trophy debut, has been going through a bad phase since then and this time too he failed to open his account. Thackeray made him his victim, while Washington Sundar and Narayan Jagadeesan were also sent back to the pavilion by this Vidarbha pacer. Thackeray took 4 wickets in 11 overs. This was India D's first win in this tournament and they finished last with 6 points.
