Is everything not well between the two former Indian cricketers? Is there a rift between the world champion captain and the match-winning player? Is Bhajji's relationship with Dhoni tight? This question is because former Indian off-spinner has said something like this in his latest revelation. He has said that there has been no talk between him and Dhoni for the last 10 years, now this will happen only when there is something like a rift in the relationship. And, if so, then what is the reason for that discord?
Dhoni and Bhajji together have written many success stories of Indian cricket. Together, both of them have won the T20 World Cup in 2007 and the ODI World Cup in 2011 for the country. In such a situation, the news of rift between them is not good news from the point of view of Indian cricket fans.
Harbhajan Singh was a regular part of the Indian cricket team in every format till the 2011 World Cup. But, between the 2011 World Cup and the 2015 World Cup, not only players like Sehwag, Sachin, Zaheer retired but players like Bhajji and Yuvraj were also seen sidelined from Team India. So is this the reason for the rift between Dhoni and Bhajji?
Harbhajan Singh, who played the last international match with Dhoni in 2015, said in a conversation with News 18 that it has been more than 10 years, I have not talked to Dhoni. I don't know what is the reason? But that's just the way it is. Bhajji said that even when he was playing IPL for CSK, he talked to Dhoni only on the field. Not apart from that. The veteran off-spinner said that after the field, neither Dhoni used to come to his room nor did I go to his room.
Harbhajan said that Yuvraj Singh and Ashish Nehra are two people with whom he remains in constant touch. But this is not the case with Dhoni. Harbhajan said that I never call him. I just call those who pick up my call. Apart from those people, I don't have time for others. According to Bhajji, you expect the same from the person to whom you are giving respect. But if this does not happen then it is better to stay away.
