Harbhajan Singh has turned 42 years old. We look at how the Indian cricket fraternity wished him on his birthday.
Former Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh remains among the most successful Indian spinner across formats, especially in Tests and One-Day Internationals (ODIs). Having announced his retirement from the sport earlier this year, he is among the very few Indian cricketers who have played the sport past 40. In the meantime, on Sunday, he turned 42 years old. As a result, the Indian cricket fraternity took to social media to celebrate the occasion. In contrast, a few of the Indian cricketers and Hardbhajan's former teammates also wished him for the same, as we look.
