‘Cricket ke bare mein toh janta nahi kitni samajh hogi’ – Harbhajan Singh faces backlash over his remarks about Anushka Sharma and Athiya Shetty

Former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh, who was part of the Hindi commentary during the ODI World Cup 2023 final between India and Australia on November 19, is currently facing a huge backlash from the fans for making nasty and creepy statements about Anushka Sharma and Athiya Shetty during the game. Notably, both leading Bollywood actresses were seen in the stands to support their partners in the game.

Notably, during the game, Anushka Sharma was talking to Athiya Shetty, and it looked like they were having a deep conversation about something, and the cameraman showed them in the stands. Following that, the well-renowned cricket commentator reiterated that he didn’t think they were both talking about cricket. In addition, the former India spinner feels the actress must be discussing movies and Bollywood stuff, and they both must be lacking cricket knowledge to discuss sports.

Notably, the video of Harbhajan Singh affirming the statement went viral after the game. Following the same, fans expressed displeasure about his remarks while claiming that he should not make any remarks about Indian actresses and the wives of cricketers and that he should solely focus on cricket commentary over making any baseless statements about Athiya Shetty and Anushka Sharma, who were in the squad to support KL Rahul and Virat Kohli in the game.

I was thinking whether this conversation is about cricket or films: Harbhajan Singh

Meanwhile, Harbhajan Singh is facing hate on social media about his bold claims against Virat Kohli and KL Rahul’s wives. The fans are expecting that the cricket commentator should apologize to both of them for his verdict.

“Aur yeh main soch raha tha ki yeh baat cricket ki ho rahi hai ya fir films ki. Kyuki cricket ke bare mein toh janta nahi kitni samajh hogi [And I was thinking whether this conversation is about cricket or films. Because I’m not sure how much understanding they have about cricket],” Harbhajan Singh made this comment during his commentary, when the camera panned towards Anushka Sharma and Athiya Shetty sitting in the stands.
