A member of the U-19 squad that lifted the World Cup in 2018, Arshdeep Singh is a left-arm pacer from Punjab. In the 2 games that he played in the tournament, Arshdeep impressed one and all with his pace and control with the new ball. A few months later, he was included in the Punjab U-23 team and he made an impact with the ball against Rajasthan taking 8 wickets including a hat-trick in the CK Nayudu Trophy. That spurred the selectors to include him in the state team for the Vijay Hazare 2018/19 and Arshdeep had a decent debut claiming 2 wickets against Himachal Pradesh. Next, he was called up for Punjab King’s trials where he proved his credentials as a death bowler which also tempted the franchise to rope him ahead of the IPL 2019 season. Punjab's constant chopping and changing meant that Arshdeep Singh earned a debut against Rajasthan Royals in his home ground at Mohali where the left-arm seamer accounted for two big guns of RR - Jos Buttler and Ajinkya Rahane. It turned out to be an eventful debut for the youngster.
 

The left-arm pacer’s skills at the death didn’t go unnoticed, as BCCI picked him amongst the traveling contingent for limited overs cricket. He had to wait a while before getting a debut, but when the opportunity presented itself he impressed with seven wickets in five games in an away series against West Indies, nabbing the Man of the Series award. Arshdeep was then picked for the 2022 Asia Cup, and was one of the standout performers in a rather forgettable campaign for India. Arshdeep didn’t let the void of Jasprit Bumrah’s absence be felt, as he took on the responsibility of being a death bowler.
 

One complaint about Arshdeep’s bowling however has been his indiscipline with regard to overstepping too frequently. Arshdeep’s no balls have cost India games against Sri Lanka and New Zealand, with many in the cricketing world coming down harsh on him. Still fairly young and a consistent death overs performer, Arshdeep could have a really bright Indian future if he can correct a few of those chinks in his armour.
