🚨 Arshdeep Singh was dropped by Gautam Gambhir against UAE as he cannot bat.

Arshdeep Singh does not have any bowlers in T20I

First Gautam Gambhir did not give him a chance in tests and now he has also been removed from the T20 Asia Cup team.

He is a better bowler than Jasprit Bumrah

Arshdeep Singh is clearly a victim of dirty politics.
He is a 3 -format player IMHO and has not been selected in the initial 11 in his best format IE T20I. You felt very sorry for that. That is why it is very important to rent a PR team to promote you. pic.twitter.com/au7zkkwshg

GG is the worst shore ever, this bastard has not selected Arshdeep Singh again, I think he is targeting PBK players, disappointed!#INDVSUAE #Asiacup2025 #India #ARSHdeepSingh

No Arshdeep Singh? 🤯 What pathetic decision! Zero is understood. Gautam Gambhir is really ruining this team, how can you leave India’s highest wicket taker in this format? Full madness and completely baffling.
He is just 1 wicket away from 100 T20I wickets. pic.twitter.com/Hzegkxpt9o

– Stumper (@Thastumpstory) September 10, 2025

Arshdeep Singh again ignoring T20 is pure madness
This man literally is India’s only left -handed option, the wicket takes both with the new ball 🌪 and 💀 on death but does not fit in “plans” in any way

What else does he need to do?#ASIACUP #INDVUAE #ARSHdeepSingh pic.twitter.com/nbrplkzdws
