The Hardik Pandya-Arshdeep Singh trade has been signed and it is a matter of time it was made public. Internal sources with the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and franchises have revealed that the formal approval from the regulators has come and an official announcement is expected at any time.
The official sign-off is believed to have come around midday, and both franchises are understood to have been formally informed of the BCCI's approval.
The deal, which was initially discussed about a week ago, got delayed reportedly because the players involved took time to sign off the papers. Following further discussions with their respective franchises, the players eventually came on board, and both franchises exchanged expressions of interest with the BCCI.
