Team India pacer Arshdeep Singh stole the show with his antics during the India A vs Australia A 3rd ODI at Green Park Stadium in Kanpur on Sunday, October 5. The left-arm quick kept the crowd entertained while fielding near the boundary, doing push-ups and showing off some dance moves during Australia’s innings. A video of his fun-filled interaction with the fans has since gone viral on social media.
Arshdeep recently featured in the Asia Cup 2025, held in the UAE, where India lifted the trophy after a thrilling final win over Pakistan. He played two matches in the tournament—against Oman in the group stage and Sri Lanka in the Super Four—picking up three wickets across both games.
