Team India pacer Arshdeep Singh bowled seven wides in the 11th over of the South African innings at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur, New Chandigarh, in the ongoing second T20I of the five-match series. The left-arm pacer failed to get his line right and conceded 18 runs in the over.

Quinton de Kock slammed a six down the ground on the first ball of the over. Arshdeep seemed under pressure after the big hit and bowled back-to-back wides.

Arshdeep finally got it right the third time and bowled a legal delivery. However, he followed it with four wides on the trot. The 26-year-old bowled yet another wide before completing the over.

Notably, the Indian seamer created an unwanted record with his 13-ball over. It was the joint-longest over bowled in T20Is among full-member teams.

The Proteas finished on 213/4 after 20 overs. Quinton de Kock missed out on a well-deserved century, getting run out on 90 (46 balls). Donovan Ferreira chipped in with a quick-fire cameo, remaining unbeaten on 30 off 16 deliveries. Aiden Markram and David Miller scored 29 off 26 and 20* off 12, respectively.

Varun Chakaravarthy was the pick of the Indian bowlers. The mystery spinner recorded impressive figures of 4-0-29-2. The hosts need to chase down an imposing 214-run target for victory.
