Team India pacer Arshdeep Singh in a chat with Shubman Gill revealed that he was bit under pressure to do well in front of their family members in the fourth T20I in Florida on Saturday.
Arshdeep ended the match with 3 for 38 and picked the wickets of Kyle Mayers and Brandon King in the powerplay and then removed a well set Shimron Hetmyer in the final over.
Speaking about the pitch, Arshdeep said he read the conditions quickly.
“I read the conditions quickly and realised that it is pretty flat. I bowled slower ones on my hard length,” he told Shubman Gill in a video posted by BCCI.tv.
Arshdeep’s father Darshan Singh and elder brother Akashdeep Singh was in stands in the fourth T20I against West Indies.
“It was pre-planned,” said Arshdeep.
“Father is in Canada to play some tournament. So he tagged along with my brother and came to USA to watch me play.
“There was a bit of extra support. There was pressure also to perform well in front of them,” he added.
India continued its fightback against West Indies by tying their five-match Twenty20 cricket series at 2-2 after a nine-wicket win in Florida on Saturday.
India comfortably reached 179-1 in 17 overs of the fourth T20 international after West Indies chose to bat first and scored a respectable 178-8.
Yashasvi Jaiswal hit 84 not out in 51 balls and fellow opener Shubman Gill added 77 in 47 deliveries to make the series-leveling win almost inevitable for India after an opening stand of 165.
