New Delhi: While he played down the speculations over his selection in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Indian seamer Arshdeep Singh has instead revealed the mantra that keeps him happy and satisfied in his personal and cricketing life. There were reports that the fast bowler could be included for the tour to Australia later this year but later, the speculations proved to be otherwise.
Arshdeep was supposed to be a participant in the ongoing home Test series against Bangladesh and upcoming one against New Zealand but Indian team went with the pace attack featuring Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj and Aakash Deep Singh. The anticipation for the Border Gavaskar Trophy series is an all-time high as India travels to Australia for a 5-match Test series for the first time in 33 years.
