Harbhajan Singh, who has been playing cricket for close to two decades was not included in the summit clash (final match), but played the role of a perfect teammate and was part of a spin-heavy squad, which included Karn Sharma, Imran Tahir, and Ravindra Jadeja. Incidentally, this was Harbhajan Singh’s fourth T20 League title (three with Mumbai).
Harbhajan Singh further added, “3/4 months back before the auction I mentioned this And it happened #believe it and become whatever u want to #4th IPL trophy for me@ChennaiIPL #whitslepodu.
