PBKS to Discuss Arshdeep's Vlogs During BCCI-Guidelines Meeting

Contrary to reports, Punjab Kings are yet to formally ask Arshdeep Singh to stop posting vlogs or reels on his Instagram handle. Cricbuzz understands that the franchise will communicate with the players on Saturday evening, including Arshdeep, and seek their compliance with the recently issued BCCI advisory.

Arshdeep, the India and Punjab Kings pacer, has over six million Instagram followers and regularly posts popular reels. Going forward, videos will be produced and posted only through the franchise's official handles.

Punjab Kings will hold a meeting with players after practice at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala and obtain signatures confirming compliance with the new guidelines.

Franchise CEO Satish Menon will formally brief the players and seek their commitment. A co-owner was initially expected to address the meeting but was unable to reach Dharamsala due to a flight diversion.

As first reported by Cricbuzz, the BCCI has issued dos and don'ts for IPL players, support staff, managers, franchise officials and owners covering guest interactions, hotel access, smoking/vaping, accreditation display, and PMOA compliance.

Each team manager is required to convene a meeting within 48 hours. The BCCI holds the Team Manager and/or the authorised franchise person jointly responsible for ensuring compliance. Managers must obtain a written acknowledgement from each player and support staff member confirming receipt and understanding of the directives.
