Contrary to recent reports, Punjab Kings haven’t officially instructed Arshdeep Singh to stop uploading vlogs or Instagram reels. Cricbuzz has learned that the franchise plans to handle the matter with the players on Saturday evening, including Arshdeep, while in search of their adherence to the newest advisory issued by the Board of Control for Cricket in India.
Arshdeep, who represents each India and Punjab Kings, has built a powerful presence as a content creator with greater than six million Instagram followers. His entertaining reels have gained significant popularity online, drawing the eye of BCCI officials and team management.
Moving forward, any video content is anticipated to be created and shared only through the franchise’s official social media platforms. Punjab Kings are scheduled to carry a gathering with the squad on Saturday evening after training on the HPCA Stadium, where players may also be asked to sign documents confirming their compliance with the brand new guidelines.
Satish Menon to Address Punjab Kings Squad After Co-Owner Misses Meeting
It is known that one among the co-owners of Punjab Kings was originally expected to talk to the players throughout the meeting. Nevertheless, reports suggest the owner couldn’t arrive in Dharamsala after a flight diversion disrupted travel plans. Consequently, franchise CEO Satish Menon will now officially address the squad and seek their assurance regarding compliance with the brand new guidelines.
As previously reported by Cricbuzz, the Board of Control for Cricket in India has circulated an in depth advisory outlining several dos and don’ts for IPL players, support staff, managers, franchise officials, and owners.
The instructions cover multiple areas, including interactions with guests, access to team hotels, smoking and vaping regulations, display of accreditation cards, and adherence to PMOA guidelines.
In accordance with the BCCI directive, every team manager must organise a gathering with the squad inside 48 hours of receiving the advisory, and Punjab Kings are set to conduct theirs on Saturday evening inside the desired deadline.
The report further stated that the BCCI “holds the Team Manager and/or the authorised person from the Franchise jointly and severally answerable for ensuring full compliance with the directives.”
The advisory also directs team management to “conduct a compulsory team briefing inside 48 hours of receipt of this Advisory to speak its contents to all players and support staff and acquire a written acknowledgement from each player and support staff member confirming receipt and understanding of the directives.”
Punjab Kings are currently placed second within the Indian Premier League 2026 standings with 13 points from 10 matches. Their next fixture is against Delhi Capitals on May 11 in Dharamsala.
