The celebrative scenes that followed India’s T20 World Cup victory showed the result of Indian team’s collective effort as they started to celebrate. Between this celebration, a kind gesture by young pacer Arshdeep Singh reminded everyone about how team spirit is more important than one’s individual spirit.
Singh, who emerged as the joint-highest wicket taker in the tournament, sruprised a lot of people by not keeping a wicket as a memento of this spectacular achievement.
When his father, Darshan Singh asked him about this, Arshdeep’s answer was very simple but touching at the same time: “Rohit Sir and Virat Sir deserve that.”
This simple act speaks volume about Arshdeep’s respect for both the senior teammates, as they have been well-known figures in the Indian cricket for over a decade.
Singh’s gesture is not simply for a physical object, it goes far beyond that. This signifies his understanding of the team’s journey and how hen acknowledges the leadership and expertise that Sharma and Kohli have brought to the table by far.
Arshdeep’s performance throughout the tournament was something to be talked about, with the way he showcased his talent and potential. However, the decision made by him, to let go of a personal memento in the name of his captain and vice-captain takes his contribution beyond the scoreboard. This gesture highlights the role that seniors play in shaping youngsters and their ethics.
This heartwarming gesture by Arshdeep reminds us that cricket, like any team sport, relies on a strong support system and respect for others.
