Arshdeep Singh sent down an 11-ball 20th over in Punjab Kings’ IPL 2026 clash against Gujarat Titans at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur, New Chandigarh and entered the history books with his spell.
The Kings made their way back into the contest after losing grip early on. The bowlers pegged the GT batters back as from 119/2 in 13.5 overs, they went down to 150/6 in 19 overs, scoring only 31 runs in 37 balls. However, momentum shifted towards the Titans when Arshdeep bowled an 11-ball 20th over.ย
The speedster bowled as many as four wide balls and one no-ball as he erred alot while trying to keep the balls away from the batters’ arc. He bowled a bounce first ball which was deemed wide before getting hit for a four on the third legal delivery by Rahul Tewatia.
He then went short for the third time as it was deemed a no-ball, following which he sent down two more wides and then another on the last ball before his over was completed with a dot ball. Despite this, Arshdeep conceded only 12 runs in the over as GT finished at 162/6.
