Skipper Hardik Pandya bitterly rued over Arshdeep Singh whose horrendous error saw India struggle against the mammoth target of 207 and eventually losing the 2nd T20I vs Sri Lanka by 16 runs. 

Though the captain did not blame the India pacer, who has just returned from an injury, outright, in the post-match presentation he said, ' no ball is a crime in any format'

He went on to note that while the team can have a good or bad they cannot be 'moving away from the basics' 

The 23-year-old had a terrible office at work. Arshdeep bowled 5 no-balls that the opposition utilised to the maximum setting a huge 207-run target for the Men in Blue that they dismally failed to chase. Sri Lanka levelled the 3-match series 1-1 with the 16-run win.
