Veteran Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh says the men in blue will focus on the task in hand instead of bothering about MS Dhoni‘s much talked about gloves. The men in blue will take on Australia on Sunday. India have started their campaign on a stunning note, having beaten South Africa convincingly.
Indo-Aussie set to be a cracker: Harbhajan
On the other hand, Australia have earned a couple of victories and will look to make it three in a row. There has been a lot of attention on Dhoni after the wicket-keeper was seen sporting Indian Army’s dagger symbol on the gloves. According to Harbhajan, the Indian team won’t be affected by all the fiasco.
Players will be unfazed by the fiasco: Harbhajan
“Obviously [players will be focussed], that’s something news channels are showing. I don’t think any player on Sunday will be thinking what MS is wearing on his gloves. They have a big game in front of them. If they win this one, then they will put out a statement that they are in it to win this Cup,” Harbhajan Singh told India Today in an interview.
Bhajji as he is famously called by his fans, feels it is going to be a high octane clash as both the teams are in good form.”Exciting game. Both the teams are top most teams in the competition. This is going to be a cracker of a game. I think India are slightly ahead.”
He also added there won’t be much of chopping and changing for the upcoming encounter.”I don’t think there will be any changes in the playing XI. Weather is expected to be fine. I don’t think we have to make a lot of chances. We have the players who can adapt to any sort of situation. India will be good.”
The experienced campaigner says India should keep things simple and not lose too many wickets in the first 10 overs.”They just should bat normally in the first 10 overs just the way they played Tests against Australia. If can resist and not lose too many wickets or not a single wicket inside the first 10 overs. then I think India have a good chance of making 280-290.” he said.
