This Is Why Sourav Ganguly Apologized to Harbhajan Singh on Twitter
Jan 9, 2019 at 3:50 PM
Sourav Ganguly might have been impeccable as a captain during his illustrious career, but the former India star seems to be a novice on Twitter, as his latest faux pas on the social media has more or less proved it.
But unlike Ganguly, his former India teammate Harbhajan Singh is one of the most active cricketers on the social media and regularly gives theย update on his personal life.
However, Ganguly, who is also the current president of Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB), seems to have absolutely no idea about what is going on Twitter as well in Harbhajan’s life, as he wrongly identified the veteran off-spinner’s daughter as his son.
It all began when Harbhajan took to Twitter to post a picture along with family at the Golden temple.
“Satnam Shri waheguru ji ????.. sab nu khush te tandrust rakhna malka ??? #Blessings #blessed #shukrana ??? @Geeta_Basra,”ย Harbhajan tweeted.

Ganguly soon replied to the tweet, complementing his ‘son’ and showering his love upon him.
“@harbhajan_singh ..beta bahut sundar hai bhajj..bahut pyar dena,”ย Ganguly wrote.
@harbhajan_singh ..beta bahut sundar hai bhajj..bahut pyar dena

Ganguly, however, soon realised his mistake and hilariously cited his age as the reason behind the mistake.
“@harbhajan_singh ..? maf karna beti bahut sundoor hai..getting old bhajj,”ย he tweeted.
@harbhajan_singh ..๐ maf karna beti bahut sundoor hai..getting old bhajj ..

Harbhajan, however, replied in the best possible manner, thanking his former captain for the blessings and love of his daughter, writing:
“Dada thank you for your blessings..love to Sana.. hope to see u soon?”
