Ponting Urges India To Include Arshdeep In Playing Eleven For Tests Against England
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting believes left-arm fast-bowler Arshdeep Singh should be included in India’s playing eleven for their upcoming Test series against England, starting on June 20 in Leeds.
Arshdeep has been a mainstay in India’s T20I team with 99 wickets in just 63 games. In first-class matches, Arshdeep has picked 66 wickets in 21 games. Ponting has also had a chance to have a close look at Arshdeep (18 scalps) by being his head coach at Punjab Kings, who are now in the playoffs of IPL 2025, and will face off against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Qualifier 1 at Mullanpur on Thursday.
“I've had a good chance to get to know him really well. He's a great character to have around the team. He's a fun-loving guy. He's very laid-back around the group, which is great. Which is what we all like,” said Ponting on The ICC Review show.
