Arshdeep Singh for Punjab Kings - (Source: AP)
The Punjab Kings (PBKS) could be involved in one of the biggest player trades ahead of the IPL 2027. According to a report by Sportstar, Mumbai Indians (MI) and Punjab Kings are close to reaching an agreement involving star all-rounder Hardik Pandya and Indian fast bowler Arshdeep Singh.
As per the deal, Hardik Pandya could move from Mumbai Indians to Punjab Kings. In return, MI are expected to receive Arshdeep Singh and wicketkeeper-batter Vishnu Vinod. However, it is important to note that neither franchise has officially confirmed the reported trade.
If the deal goes through, Arshdeep Singh will become another big name to leave the Punjab Kings through a player trade.
