Harbhajan slams Pandya, Rahul for jeopardising reputation of cricketers

TIL Desk Sports/ Ace spinner Harbhajan Singh, on Friday, slammed Hardik Pandya and K L Rahul for their sexist comments on women on a TV show, saying they have put the reputations of cricketers at stake.

The duo appeared on a talk show where their comments – Pandya’s in particular – came in for widespread criticism and raised concerns over the team culture. As punishment, Pandya and Rahul were suspended by India’s cricket administrators, hours after captain Virat Kohli expressed his strong disapproval.

“We don’t talk about all this even with our friends and they were talking on public television. Now people might think was Harbhajan Singh like this, was Anil Kumble like this and was Sachin Tendulkar…” Harbhajan told.
