After Suryakumar, PCB targets another Indian cricketer ahead of Asia Cup finals: reports

New Delhi: The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has targeted another India player with an ICC complaint over an ‘unethical’ act during the September 21 match against Pakistan in the Super Four stage of the ongoing Asia Cup 2025 as it lodged a complaint with the International Cricket Council (ICC).

The fresh complaint comes days after the PCB had lodged a complaint against India T20 cricket team captain Suryakumar Yadav, for which he was found guilty and fined 30 per cent of his match fees.

PCB's actions comes just ahead of the two teams all set to lock horns once again in the final at the Dubai International Stadium on Sundayof the Asia Cup.

Pakistan's Geo News report claimed that India fast bowler Arshdeep Singh allegedly made “obscene” gestures towards spectators during the Super Four game last Sunday in Dubai.

The said incident is believed to have occurred after the end of the match, where India beat Pakistan for the second time in the tournament by six wickets in a tense chase.

The report revealed that PCB argued Arshdeep Singh's gesture was "unethical" and in violation of the ICC Code of Conduct, and it "brought the game into disrepute".

The PCB urged the ICC to take strict disciplinary action.

Earlier, PCB had complained to the ICC that Suryakumar's post-match remark during the on-ground interview, where he dedicated the group-stage win against Pakistan to the victims of the Pahalgam terror attack, constituted a breach of the ICC regulation to avoid political messaging.

Meanwhile, two Pakistan players - Sahibzada Farhan and Haris Rauf - also faced disciplinary hearings last Friday for his provocative gestures during the Super Four game on September 21.

India and Pakistan are all set to clash in the finals of the Asia Cup on Sunday.
