New Delhi. India’s off-spinner Harbhajan Singh is soon on the verge of joining the ranks of being called a former cricketer. Yes, such reports have come out that Harbhajan Singh is going to retire from all types of cricket soon. The reason behind this is that he will be seen as an important member of the support staff of a major IPL franchise next year.
Harbhajan Singh, 41, played a few matches for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the first leg of the last IPL, but Bhajji did not get a chance to play a single match in the UAE leg of the league. Harbhajan is expected to officially announce his retirement from competitive cricket next week and is expected to join the support staff of one of the franchises thereafter.
A source said, “This role could be of mentoring, mentoring or being part of an advisory group, but the franchise he is talking to wants to use his experience. Harbhajan also plays a role in selecting players in the auction. Will play an active role in helping.” Harbhajan Singh has a lot of IPL experience and has played for India for a long time. However, he has not got a chance to play international cricket for India since 2016.
