Punjab Kings have clarified that Arshdeep Singh has no fitness issues and the fast bowler has been practising with the team in a full frontal way. Arshdeep has faced scrutiny over his dip in form and a number of other off-field controversies. Punjab Kings lost their 6th consecutive game against RCB and their IPL playoff chances took a major hit.
PBKS Issued Arshdeep Singh Fitness Statement
Concerns erupted after PBKS head of sports sciences, Andrew Leipus reiterated Arshdeep had some restrictions which hadn't allowed him to be at his peak. The fast bowler has been Punjab's potent weapon and has picked up 14 wickets so far this season. Punjab Kings issued a statement: "Contrary to reports, we would like to confirm that our leading fast bowler and highest wicket-taker, Arshdeep Singh, is fully fit and has been actively training with the squad.
"The team management is absolutely pleased with his progress, and he is raring to go as we head into a crucial contest of the tournament.
“His energy, rhythm, and commitment in the nets have been extremely encouraging, and we are confident that he will continue to play a key role for Punjab Kings moving forward as well.”
