A bowler’s identity is the action he adopts before releasing the ball from his hands. There are several unique bowling actions, such as Shoab Akhtar’s sling or Malinga’s side sling. Harbhajan Singh himself had a very classic action that saw many children take to the field and imitate the legendary off spinner.

The two cricketers have played a lot of cricket together and share a great bond as is visible from the video above.
Harbhajan Singh is currently part of the expert panel and had taken the opportunity to meet his junior, who couldn’t help but pull the legs of the one of India’s legendary match winners.
India would go on to win the match after chasing down the target of 143 set by Sri Lanka. The Lankan Lions huffed and puffed their way to a 142, which could have been even lesser if not for Wanindu Hasaranga throwing his bat around in the last over.
India went on to register the win with 15 balls to spare. KL Rahul and Shikhar Dhawan laid the foundation for the victory with a 71-run opening partnership. Virat Kohli remained not out at 30 from 17 balls to finish the game. The win give India an insurmountable 1-0 lead in the 3-match series; off which the 1st match was washed out.
