Left-arm paceman Arshdeep Singh showcased his prowess by taking two crucial wickets for Kent in their match against Northamptonshire in County Championship Division 1. His contributions with the ball played a vital role in his team’s efforts to excel in the tournament.
Saini made an impressive debut in the County Championship Division 2 while representing Worcestershire. Saini wasted no time in making his mark as he picked up his maiden wicket with his very first ball against Derbyshire.
Singh (2/56) rocked Northamptonshire’s top-order, removing opener Emilio Gay (15) and skipper Luke Procter (7) with Kent captain Jack Leaning taking both the catches at the second slip.
It was yet another credible effort from Singh, who had bagged a four-wicket match haul on his debut against Surrey.
Australian pacer Wes Agar (5/63) was the most successful bowler for Kent as he claimed the second five-wicket haul of his first-class career.
Off-spinner Hamidullah Qadri also took three wickets as Sussex restricted Northamptonshire to a modest 237.
In reply, Kent reached 222 for one with Tawanda Muyeye (123) and Daniel Bell-Drummond (96) at the crease.
At County Ground, New Road, Worcester, Saini, who was included in India’s Test squad for the upcoming West Indies tour, cleaned up Derbyshire opener Harry Came after the batter misread the line and length.
Saini was signed by Worcestershire for four matches, but he will miss three games as the schedule clashes with the West Indies Test series.
