BCCI asks Punjab Kings pacer Arshdeep Singh to stop vlogging amid vaping row

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is believed to have asked Indian cricketer and Punjab Kings pacer Arshdeep Singh to stop vlogging for social media, claimed sources.

The directive has come in the middle of a controversy, as his teammate Yuzvendra Chahal was allegedly seen vaping on a flight. In one of his latest vlogs, various social media users alleged that Chahal was using a vape inside the aircraft while the team was travelling from Ahmedabad to Hyderabad. Before the start of the tournament, Chahal had claimed to have put his entire focus on fitness. "The BCCI has directed Arshdeep to refrain from posting vlogs for the remainder of the tournament," said a source.

This is not the first time that an Indian Premier League (IPL) player has been hit by a "vaping" controversy. Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag was recently fined 25 per cent of his match fee after being caught on camera using a vape inside the dressing room during a match against Punjab Kings in Mullanpur.

Arshdeep remains quite active over the social media for his funny videos.
