Most Loved Player Battles In The History Of Cricket!
Harbhajan Singh vs Ricky Ponting
Around 19 years ago, Harbhajan Singh made his debut in 1998, and it all started from there onwards. In a day/nighter of the Coca-Cola Cup at Sharjah, who would have thought that the greatest rivalry is going to start from here? Ricky Ponting, who was looking solid on 31, got out stumped off Bhajji. The off-spinner was too delighted that he celebrated by marching down the wicket towards him. Ponting responded with a volley of abuse, vowing that one day he would take an act of great revenge.
The Australian batsman would be disappointed that his day did not come the way he would have always wanted. Harbhajan, in his entire career, has dismissed Ponting 10 times in Tests and 3 times in ODIs. Last year, Ricky Ponting lavished praise on his rival Harbhajan Singh by saying that he still gets nightmares of him.
