Harbhajan Singh birthday is on July 3. Former cricketer and current sports analyst Harbhajan Singh is a senator of the Rajya Sabha and a prominent member of the Indian national cricket team.

Harbhajan Singh Birthday – July 3

Singh, a specialized spin bowler, represented India from 1998 to 2016. Locally, he led Punjab during the 2012–13 Ranji Trophy tournament and the Mumbai Indians of the Indian Premier League. Mumbai clinched the 2011 Champions League Twenty20 while he served as commander.

His Return To Games

Early in 1998, Singh played in his first Test and One Day International (ODI). Concerns about the legitimacy of his pitching motion, as well as a number of disruptive behavior, originally had an impact on his profession. However, Harbhajan’s profession was revived in 2001 when Indian captain Sourav Ganguly appealed for his reinstatement in the squad due to the injury to star leg spinner Anil Kumble; he took 32 wickets in the ensuing match and became the first Indian pitcher to complete a hat-trick in Test match cricket.

Finger Injury That Costed His Career And Violent Controversies

He missed most of the 2004 season due to a finger injury, which allowed Kumble to follow in his footsteps. Late in 2007, he was given a permanent spot back in the lineup, but the issue only grew. He received a suspension from the International Cricket Council (ICC) in the beginning of 2008 for defaming Andrew Symonds in a discriminatory manner.

Matches, Scores And More

Harbhajan was chosen as the second bowler for the 1999–2000 Australian tour following collecting eight wickets during his next two Ranji games. Due to India’s decision to deploy only Anil Kumble in the lineup, he did not participate in the Test matches. India was defeated by Australia 3-0, and Harbhajan labored versus Tasmania in his lone first-class match, taking 0/141, a sign of subsequent fruitless journeys to Australia.

When it comes to his total matches, it comes up to a lot of matches. ODI includes 235, Tests 103, T201 28, and FC 198. And the scores of those matches go along with very nice numbers like ODI 1237, Tests 2224, T201 108, FC 4255. Wickets to sum up along with it includes numbers like, ODI 269, Test 269, T201 25, and FC 780.
