Veteran off-spinner Harbhajan Singh is all set to miss Chennai Super Kings’ Sunday’s encounter against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Eden Gardens.

As per a report in PTI, Harbhajan has not travelled to Kolkata with his CSK teammates as he is recovering from a neck injury.

"I was supposed to play in Jaipur against Rajasthan Royals but in the morning of the game, I had severe neck pain and had to pull out," Harbhajan told PTI on Saturday (April 13).

The offie also informed that his wife and daughter are not well and thus he is taking care of the family in Mumbai.

"Both my wife and daughter are not keeping well. I am in Mumbai taking care of my family. Once they get well, I will join the team back," he added.

If things improve quickly, Harbhajan might join the team for their ninth game against Sunrisers Hyderabad on April 17 or for the match against RCB on April 21.

It is worth mention here that Harbhajan is having a great time in the ongoing Indian Premier League. The 38-year-old has taken seven wickets from four games in IPL 2019 so far. He has also won Man-of-the-Match awards.
