India pacer Arshdeep Singh claimed his maiden wicket of County cricket by removing Ben Foakes with a perfect inswinger. Making his debut for English county team Kent against Surrey, the left-arm pacer went over the wicket and bowled a good length delivery to Foakes. The ball swung into the right-handed batter and caught him plumb in front of the stumps. Arshdeep ended the Surrey innings with figures of 2 for 43 in the 14.2 overs he bowled. He bowled four maidens.
