‘Harbhajan Singh is becoming Shoaib Akhtar of India’- ‘Turbanator’ trolled for his ‘ India would win 10-0’ remark
Team India took an unassailable 2-0 lead in the four-match Test series after beating Australia by 6 wickets in the second Test at Arun Jaitley Stadium. India have been nothing short of sensational in the Test series so far. Australian batters have looked clueless against the Indian spinners on the spin-friendly pitches. The left-arm spinner, Ravindra Jadeja has made a phenomenal comeback in international cricket, having managed to pick 17 wickets in 2 matches at an average of 11.24.
He is, currently, the highest wicket-taker in the series. Veteran Indian spinner, Ravichandran Ashwin is second on the list with 14 wickets in 2 matches at 13.93. In the second Test in Delhi, India bundled out Australia for 263 runs in the first innings.
Jadeja and Ashwin claimed three wickets each, while Shami returned with sensational figures of 4 for 60 in 14.4 overs. Australia bowled well to bundle India out for 262 runs but Jadeja then wreaked havoc in the third innings as Australia were bowled out for just 113 runs.
Ravindra Jadeja recorded his best bowling figures of 7 for 42 in Test series. Given how the Indian spinners have spun a web around the opposition, it doesn’t look like Australia would be able to make a comeback in the series. Amidst this, former Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh has made a huge remark while predicting that India will beat the Aussies by a 4-0 margin.
Harbhajan Singh said that even it was a 10-match Test series, India would still have whitewashed the Aussies 10-0 as the opposition lack firepower in their side. The fans have come with numerous reactions to Harbhajan Singh’s massive claims.
Here’s a look at some of those:
Never underestimate your opponent:)

Harbhajan Singh (in Sports Tak) said "I have absolutely no doubt that India will win 4-0, even if it was a 10 match series, India would have won 10-0 because Australia doesn't have any firepower".
