With this historic victory, Team India has won the T20 World Cup title for the third time. In this title match, a heated argument was seen between Indian fast bowler Arshdeep Singh and New Zealand’s Daryl Mitchell. However, after the match, Arshdeep himself broke his silence on this matter and gave a funny reaction.
Arshdeep had hit the ball to Mitchell during the match
Actually, during New Zealand’s innings, Indian fast bowler Arshdeep Singh was bowling in the 11th over. On the fifth ball of the over, Mitchell played a defensive shot and the ball bounced and reached Arshdeep. After this, Arshdeep hit the ball on Mitchell’s thigh in the follow throw. Mitchell became very angry with this action of Arshdeep and started moving towards him in an aggressive manner. After this incident the tension on the field increased. Seeing the matter escalating, Captain Suryakumar Yadav came to the rescue. He talked to Mitchell and tried to calm the atmosphere. On the other hand, the umpire also talked to Arshdeep and explained to him.

After winning the final, when Arshdeep was asked about this incident, he answered the question in a very funny manner. He said that, I immediately ran away and apologized to Mitchell.
