'Lot of things will get solved': Harbhajan Singh picks Sreesanth as 'roommate'
Harbhajan Singh has shown willingness to mend fences with Sreesanth, suggesting that shared time together might pave the way for reconciliation. This came after Sreesanth threw down a boxing gauntlet to Harbhajan, sparked by an image of their former rivalry. Their relationship traces back to a tumultuous 2008 IPL incident that has left lingering tensions.
Harbhajan Singh has expressed openness to sharing a room with former teammate S. Sreesanth, sparking hope for a resolution in their long-standing feud. The tension between the two former India players flared up in 2008 during the inaugural Indian Premier League season, when Harbhajan slapped Sreesanth during a match. The incident, captured on television, became a defining moment of the tournament and resulted in Harbhajan's 11-match ban and hefty fine.
In recent months, Sreesanth has taken a bold step by publicly challenging Harbhajan to settle their differences in a boxing ring. The former pacer shared an old photograph of himself and Harbhajan wearing boxing gloves, prompting the challenge for the two to face off in the ring. Harbhajan, however, has responded positively to the idea, stating that being in the same room could help clear the air between them.
The rift between the two players was eventually healed, as they continued to play together and represent India in various T20 and ODI World Cups. Despite the past controversy, Harbhajan has indicated that he has no issues with Sreesanth staying as his roommate, suggesting that keeping the former teammates together could help solve many of their problems.
