Key facts:

• Arshdeep violated Article 2.9 of the ICC Code of Conduct.
• One demerit point was added to his disciplinary record.
• This was Arshdeep’s first offence within a 24-month period.
• India won the final by 96 runs, marking their third T20 World Cup title.
• The previous titles were won in 2007 and 2024.

Arshdeep accepted the sanction proposed by Andy Pycroft of the ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees. Under ICC regulations, a Level 1 breach carries a minimum punishment of an official reprimand and a maximum fine of 50% of a player’s match fee.

This incident may impact Arshdeep’s participation in IPL 2026. Reports suggest he could be dropped from the playing XI for Punjab Kings (PBKS) against Gujarat Titans (GT). Priyansh Arya is expected to take his place as an opener.

Marco Jansen and Lockie Ferguson are set to lead pace bowling duties for PBKS in this match. The team dynamics may shift as they adapt to changes prompted by Arshdeep’s disciplinary action.
