archdeep aforementioned, “Umran ksaath mahoul kafi accha rehta hai. Usko hasi mazak kaafi pasand hai. Aur jaha tak bowling ki baat hai, Mujhe benefit mil jata hai kyuki 155 se sidha 135 jab khelne ata hai batsman toh decieve ho jata hai toh kaafi pace se. (Things are very enjoyable when there is Ümran. Like me, she loves to joke around. When it comes to bowling, I see a lot of benefits. [when he’s bowling at the other end] Like when shooters are cheated while playing 135 km/h after 155 km/h deliveries). We have a lot of fun both on and off the field. We will try to continue this partnership off the field as well.”

Arshdeep Singh explains why partnership is important in bowling
Arshdeep Singh He also explained how bowling in ODIs differs from bowling in T20s. He said that like batter players, bowlers form partnerships in the game. He also stated that if his partner bowls aggressively from one end, he automatically bowls defensively to increase the pressure on the opponents.
“ODI is a long game, partnerships play an important role, partnership is important in bowling just as in batting. I look at how my partner at the other end bowls at the other end. If he’s bowling well, taking more than the surface, I’ll try to stop the runs to help him. At the end of the day, it’s a team sport. If I’m attacking, my partner on the other end gets defensive.” added.
