Team India new-ball seamer Arshdeep Singh's entire family had made an appearance at the Nassau International County Stadium in New York on Sunday for the high-voltage clash against Pakistan. IPL franchise Punjab Kings' official social media handle on X released a video of Arshdeep Singh's father speaking about the match and notably said how the nation comes before his son.
The family had been waiting outside the stadium due to a delayed start in New York amid rains. With the reporter asking Arshdeep's father, how does he cope being a supporter of his father and India. He claimed that it does become difficult at times, but asserted that India comes first, suggesting that he wants the Men in Blue to win, regardless of his son's performance.
