WHEN ARSHDEEP SINGH broke into the Indian Test squad, his father Darshan Singh Aulakh reminisced about the hours his son spent watching videos of former left-arm pacer Irfan Pathan as a youngster and getting inspired to represent the country in the longest format.
Aulakh, formerly with the CISF, and wife Baljit Kaur received the good news ahead of their son taking the field for Punjab Kings in the IPL game against Delhi Capitals in Jaipur.
"Arshdeep would watch videos of Irfan Pathan repeatedly and would often tell me that he would also play for India in whites one day. Like every cricketer, earning a Test cap and doing well in Tests remains Arshdeep's biggest dream," Aulakh said.
