WATCH- “Panga nahi lena sardara nal,” says Harbhajan Singh sharing video of his scuffle with Shoaib Akhtar

Harbhajan Singh and Shoaib Akhtar had a tiff during a Asia Cup 2010 encounter.

Harbhajan Singh is one of the funniest and competitive cricketers ever take to field. He is known for being humorous and lively on and off the field but is also famous for his temper. He is a hot-headed cricketer who cannot hold back if challenged to something.

One such instance came in the Asia Cup 2010 match between India and Pakistan. Pakistan had posted 267 batting first with Salman Butt and Kamran Akmal hitting half-centuries. India’s chase started off well with Gambhir making 83 and MS Dhoni making 56.

However, when Harbhajan walked in, India needed 49 off 4.5 overs with 4 wickets in hand. Suresh Raina was there for company and his big-hitting antics brought the equation down to 16 off 2 overs.

Shoaib had been sledging Harbhajan during these testing times and offie responded in kind, even hitting him for a six. Then Raina hit Akhtar for a six in the penultimate over to shorten the equation. .

The fearsome bouncers weren't how he finished his spell. There was fierce sledging too. But Harbhajan, the competitor, did not back down. Harbhajan had made Akhtar quite mad for hitting him for a six, but Bhajji’s six in the last over off Mohammad Amir sent Pakistan out of the tournament, as India won the close encounter.

The Indian off-spinner recently shared the video of his whole tiff with Pakistani's fast bowler on his Instagram with the caption, " Panga nahi lena sardara nal"
