Arshdeep Singh's father has confirmed that the fast bowler has been traded from Punjab Kings to Mumbai Indians. The deal, which also involves Hardik Pandya moving in the opposite direction, is pending formal approval from the BCCI and IPL governing council. The transfer comes as both franchises aim to address different needs - Mumbai seeking an established India fast bowler while Punjab looks to add a versatile all-rounder. Arshdeep, who has spent his entire IPL career with Punjab, brings left-arm swing and death overs expertise to Mumbai, potentially forming a potent Indian pace duo with Jasprit Bumrah. Meanwhile, Hardik's addition to Punjab could strengthen their middle order and offer Shreyas Iyer another seam-bowling option. The deadline for submitting retained and released player lists is extended to November 17, with the IPL 2027 mini-auction scheduled for December 16 in Goa.
