Very pleased to see the progression of Arshdeep Singh from the victorious India U-19 team to the senior team #TeamIndia. Congrats to the @PunjabKingsIPL bowler

Delighted to see Avesh, Arshdeep & Umran Malik in the squad; and to think that Khaleel & Mohsin could have made the cut too; Good that the skills of Dinesh Karthik & Bhuvi have been recognised. Going to be tough on KL Rahul & Rishabh. Thought they might go straight to the test.

Sunrisers Hyderabad's Umran Malik and Punjab Kings' Arshdeep Singh have been named in the Indian T20I squad for the home South Africa series.

Both the young bowlers have been having an incredible season in IPL 2022 and have been one of the key players for their respective teams.

Umran Malik has clocked the fastest delivery (157 kmph) of this IPL season, so far. Arshdeep Singh too has helped Punjab win many matches with his incredible bowling skills at the end of the innings.

After a deserving call-up for both the youngsters, many cricketers, commentators and other celebs congratulated and wished the duo for their first national team call-up.

KL Rahul will lead India in the T20 series against South Africa and Rohit Sharma will captain the Test Squad against England.
