His figures of 6 for 99 in the second innings capped off a match total of 10 for 187, solidifying his arrival on the international stage.
An endearing video circulating on social media captures an English supporter serenading the 28-year-old outside Edgbaston.
The fan passionately sings, "Akash Deep, Akash Deep, Bowling England Out, Akash Deep!"
Sachin Tendulkar, the legendary cricketer, lauded Akash Deep as the "standout bowler" of the match, describing his delivery to dismiss Joe Root in the second innings as the "ball of the series."
Tendulkar shared his praise on X.
He emphasized India's strategy to dominate the game, forcing England to adapt their playstyle. He lauded the bowlers' accuracy and length.
"Needless to say, Akash Deep was the standout bowler, and in my opinion, he bowled the ball of the series to Joe Root," Tendulkar stated.
