Harbhajan Singh takes sly dig at MSK Prasad-led selection committee post Yuvraj Singh's tweet

Harbhajan Singh takes sly dig at MSK Prasad: The veteran Indian spinner has expressed disappointment with the MSK Prasad-led selection committee.

Veteran India spinner Harbhajan Singh has taken a sly dig at Indian cricket team’s previous selection committee led by former India wicket-keeper MSK Prasad.

It is worth mentioning that this is not the first time that Harbhajan has publicly expressed disappointment with India’s previous selection committee. Harbhajan, 39, had went on to demand a new selection selection after rookie wicket-keeper batsman Sanju Samson was left out of India’s squad for West Indies last year.

It all started after former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh retweeted a tweet from one of his fan accounts. It was on this day in 2017 that the southpaw had become the fifth Indian player to play 300 ODIs when he took the field for India against Bangladesh during a Champions Trophy match in Birmingham.

Yuvraj, who frequently credits former India captain and current BCCI President Sourav Ganguly behind his success, once again thanked him and his “first batch” of selectors for including him in the Indian team.

Harbhajan, who had most recently expressed keenness in representing India in T20Is, was quick to ask Yuvraj regarding his “last batch” of selectors.

After his retirement from international cricket last year, Yuvraj captained Toronto Nationals in the second season of the Global T20 League 2019 and went on to represent Maratha Arabians in the Abu Dhabi T10 League 2019.

The 38-year old also traveled to Australia to take part in the Bushfire relief match in addition to playing for India Legends in the Road Safety World Series.
