Harbhajan Singh to ex-cop: Players are Indians first, religion irrelevant
Tuesday, October 24, 2017 IST
Harbhajan Singh’s reply to former top Gujarat policeman Sanjiv Bhatt on social media has gone viral. The cop had posted a comment on social media regarding Muslim players in Indian cricket team.
“In the present time, is there any Muslim player in the Indian cricket team? Since independence, how many times has it happened that there are no Muslim players in the Indian team? Have Muslims stopped playing cricket? Or the selectors are following the rules of a different game?” Bhatt said in a social media post, written in Hindi.
In the current Indian side, fast bowlers Mohammed Shami and Mohammed Siraj are two Muslim cricketers in the squad, named for the upcoming Test series against Sri Lanka and the three-match T20I series against New Zealand.
