Harbhajan Singh talks about his retirement plan
Harbhajan Singh talks about his retirement plan: Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh is finding it hard to break into the playing eleven in any of the formats. And it seems with R Ashwin performing exceedingly well, his days in international cricket are numbered.
Like every cricketer, Harbhajan also has the desire to leave the game on his own terms. After the last T20I between India and South Africa was washed out due to rain, Bhajji talked at length about his love for the Eden Gardens and how he wishes to hang the boots.
Such has been his emotional connect with Kolkata that the ‘Turbanator’ said that as and when he decides to retire, he would like to play last Test match on the hallowed Eden Gardens turf.
“I have not planned anything but yes, whenever I would think I would like to play my last game at the Eden. But that has got to be in a Test,” Harbhajan, who has a Test hat-trick at this venue during the 2001 Test win against Australia, said.
The off-spinner with a five-wicket haul also helped India retain their No 1 Test status after beating South Africa by an innings and 57 runs in 2010 at the same venue. Harbhajan who has 417 Test wickets to his name also paid glowing tribute to Jagmohan Dalmiya, the late BCCI president.
