India pacer Arshdeep Singh’s parents expected their son to face heavy criticism on social media the moment India lost their Asia Cup 2022 match to Pakistan on Sunday.  Arshdeep, 23, could not hold on to the catch offered by Pakistani batsman Asif Ali off Ravi Bishnoi and was the one who bowled the final over in which Pakistan reached their target for a five-wicket win. 

Arshdeep’s parents have urged their son to ignore messages circulating on social media. “We have advised him not to pay any attention to such criticism, but concentrate on his next game,” Arshdeep’s mother, Baljit Kaur told mid-day on their return from Dubai.
