Arshdeep Singh Bowled longest over in T20I history: Arshdeep Singh, the most successful T20 bowler of the Indian cricket team, bowled the longest over in this format.

New Delhi: Arshdeep Singh is the most successful fast bowler in T20 after Jasprit Bumrah in the Indian cricket team. Arshdeep is one of the few fast bowlers in T20 who has more than 100 wickets in his name. In this format, Arshdeep has played an important role in the victory of Team India on many occasions, but in T20 itself, he has such a shameful record in his name which is no less than a stain on his career.

This is the record of bowling the biggest over in T20 International. Arshdeep Singh is jointly at first place with Naveen Ul Haq of Afghanistan. Not many days have passed since this incident happened. In fact, in the match played against South Africa in Chandigarh last year in 2025, Arshdeep Singh had completed his over in 13 balls. That means he had bowled more than a dozen balls to complete one over.

Arshdeep Singh had bowled 7 wides in the over.

In the match against South Africa, Arshdeep Singh had bowled 7 wide balls along with 6 legal balls. Coach Gautam Gambhir was also upset because of bowling one wide ball after another, but somehow Arshdeep completed his shameful over. In this over, Arshdeep had given a total of 18 runs including 7 extra runs. Talking about Naveen Ul Haq, he had completed the over in 13 balls in the match against Zimbabwe in 2024. Naveen Ul Haq had bowled 6 wides and one no ball in his over.

Talking about Arshdeep, he proved to be very expensive in that 13-ball over match. Arshdeep was badly beaten by the South African batsmen. In that match, Arshdeep gave away 54 runs in his four over spell and did not get a single wicket. Along with Arshdeep, Jasprit Bumrah was also hit in that match. Bumrah also spent 45 runs in 4 overs without taking any wicket.

South Africa won the match

Apart from this, if we talk about the match, South Africa had defeated India by 51 runs. Along with the bowling, Team India’s batting was also very weak in the match. In the match, the South African team, batting first, scored 213 runs for 4 wickets with the help of Quinton de Kock’s innings of 90 runs. In response, the Indian team was limited to 162 runs in 19.1 overs.
