Axar Patel’s 'Duniya Hila Denge' remark to Arshdeep Singh sparks viral clip from Hamilton practice

A video of India allrounder Axar Patel telling pace bowler Arshdeep Singh "Duniya Hila Denge" during a rain-hit practice session in Hamilton, ahead of the third ODI against New Zealand, went viral on social media on November 9, 2026. The clip shows teammates Kuldeep Yadav and Ruturaj Gaikwad present and joining the light-hearted exchange.
The footage surfaced amid ongoing coverage of the IPL 2027 trade window, which has seen multiple trade rumours reported in the media. Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings have been linked in reports discussing a possible swap involving Hardik Pandya and Arshdeep Singh, with coverage suggesting Hardik could move to Punjab and Arshdeep to Mumbai. Separately, Delhi Capitals and Chennai Super Kings have been named in rumours around players including Axar Patel, Ashutosh Sharma and Dewald Brevis.
Heavy rain in Hamilton forced India to practise indoors, and the players were filmed chatting and joking during the session while preparing for the third ODI. The viral clip captures the informal atmosphere inside the indoor facility rather than on-field training activities.
In the exchange that drew attention, Axar Patel playfully teased Arshdeep Singh using the phrase "Duniya Hila Denge", a slogan associated in reports with the Mumbai Indians. Kuldeep Yadav responded to Axar by saying "Vanakkam", and Ruturaj Gaikwad is seen laughing during the interaction.
The video was circulated on social platforms with captions that reproduced the phrases and used hashtags referencing the IPL and trade talks, including #IPL #IPLTrades #IPL2027. Several posts paired short captions with the clip and were shared widely by fans and cricket accounts.
Axar Patel is identified in the coverage as a member of the Delhi Capitals squad, while Arshdeep Singh is described as a Punjab Kings player. The reports and the viral clip have not been accompanied by official statements from the franchises, and the footage itself does not confirm any completed transfers.
The viral exchange adds to media attention around reported deals during the IPL 2027 trade window but leaves the underlying transfer reports unconfirmed; India remain in Hamilton preparing for the third ODI against New Zealand.
