'Bohot badhiya banda hai woh': Harbhajan Singh on Gambhir amid criticism
India won the T20 World Cup, Champions Trophy and Asia Cup under Gautam Gambhir. However, the Test team suffered heavy defeats against Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, including home-series whitewashes against New Zealand and South Africa. Gambhir's handling of the Test team has faced criticism from fans and experts.
Former India spinner Harbhajan Singh has revealed why he was expelled from the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in 2000. The incident occurred when Harbhajan, among the first trainees at the academy, complained about the food not matching the prescribed diet. Despite repeated complaints, the food remained unchanged, and Harbhajan tore up the diet chart in frustration.
He clarified that this action was not his mistake, emphasizing that not getting the proper diet was their right. Harbhajan believes his decision to speak up was crucial, as the problems with the diet plan would not have been addressed otherwise. However, he acknowledged that standing up for the rights could have consequences, leading to his expulsion from the NCA.
