Arshdeep Singh Roasts Shashank Singh in Airport-Lounge Clip — IPL 2026

Punjab Kings

1 May 2026

A 38-second clip of Punjab Kings' Arshdeep Singh roasting teammate Shashank Singh in an airport lounge became one of IPL 2026's most-shared off-field moments. The premise was Shashank's run of dropped catches across the season — including the now-notorious drop of KL Rahul on 12, who went on to make 150-plus. Arshdeep, on camera, asks Shashank to demonstrate his catching technique using a coffee cup; the bit lands, both players laugh, and the clip is uploaded by a teammate before the squad has cleared security.

Shashank Singh Drops Klaasen at Sweep — PBKS Catching Crisis Continues

Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Punjab Kings

6 May 2026

Shashank Singh's IPL 2026 fielding curse continued at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on 6 May 2026 when he dropped Heinrich Klaasen off Yuzvendra Chahal's bowling — a slog sweep that flew straight to him at the boundary, sat in his hands for a fraction of a second, and slipped out. PBKS fans on social media were unforgiving.

Punjab Kings

6 May 2026

Punjab Kings' 16 dropped catches in 10 matches — joint most in IPL 2026 alongside Chennai Super Kings — has converted the franchise's fielding lapses into a season-long story arc. Shashank Singh, with three drops in a single LSG match alone, has been the public face of the trend; head coach Ricky Ponting has compared the catching slump to a 'virus.'

Ricky Ponting's 'It's Like a Virus' Line on Shashank Singh's Drops — IPL 2026

Punjab Kings

May 2026

PBKS head coach Ricky Ponting summarised his side's fielding crisis in IPL 2026 with two lines that became the season's most-shared coaching quotes: 'It's like a virus. We've put a lot of catches down so far this season,' and the affectionate-exasperated 'It just looks like the ball is following him around everywhere he goes' — directed specifically at Shashank Singh's run of drops.
