Given the responsibility to defend 15 runs in the final over of the match against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday, the Punjab Kings pacer Arshdeep Singh not just did the job but also came close to a hat-trick after breaking the middle stump twice off successive deliveries.
These stumps are very expensive because of the LEDs and microphone wiring placed inside them. According to reports, a full set of LED stumps with the zing bails, which light up when displaced, cost Rs 25-30 lakh approximately. Arshdeep's over might not have been expensive in terms of runs given, but was an expensive one in terms of the damage caused!
