Harbhajan Singh and Shoaib Akhtar had heated spat in the 2010 Asia Cup
Notably, India and Pakistan were locked in an intense match back in the 2010 Asia Cup, where Harbhajan Singh and Shoaib Akhtar had a fiery exchange during the closing overs of the Men in Blue’s chase. During the match, Shoaib tried to rattle Bhajji with verbal sledging when he was on the crease with the bat.
The drama intensified when Harbhajan smashed a crucial six off Mohammad Amir in the penultimate over, setting the stage for a thrilling finish. In the final over, Harbhajan sealed India’s victory by hammering another six, this time against Shoaib.
However, both players later brushed off the incident. In his autobiography, Shoaib said that he and Harbhajan shared mutual respect and a strong friendship off the field. They now share a great bond and camaraderie, and the past videos and photos of them are proof of how much they now respect each other and enjoy time together.
