IPL 2023: Lee lauds Arjun for bowling well in the death overs, says the youngster will only get better
Not too long back, IPL 2023 witnessed Rinku Singh smacking five sixes in the last over. Yash Dayal, the bowler, who bowled the last over, failed to execute Yorkers. Playing just his second match, the pressure on Arjun was huge, but he backed his skills and kept bowling wide Yorkers at will. Lee lauded the left-arm bowler for handling the pressure situation well.
“He tried to nail that wide-line yorker and he did it very well. It’s hard coming in, playing only his 2nd match, he was under pressure with the whole team relying on him… he honed himself impeccably, he spoke well, and his game is only going to improve,” mentioned Lee, whose rivalry with Arjun’s father, Sachin is on epic proportions.
