The great spinner Harbhajan Singh and former India captain MS Dhoni recently met at a function. A number of fans expressed surprise at the sudden reunion of the old teammates, and others shared their opinions about the unusual encounter.
Interestingly, both Indian cricket greats were said to be polite to one another. Fascinating enough, the Turbanator, also known as Harbhajan, disclosed that about a dispute with Dhoni during a December conversation last year. He continued by saying that it had been over ten years since he had spoken to the former world champion and talismanic leader.
Consequently, the aforementioned video has gained widespread popularity on social media. The fact that MS Dhoni appeared to be not only amiable but also made a kind gesture by bringing out a chair for the iconic figure astounded the fans. The cricketer from Ranchi and the spin star last spoke when they were teammates of the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), a well-known IPL (Indian Premier League) team. However, Bhajji stated that he had not spoken to Dhoni for over ten years after leaving CSK.
“No, I don’t communicate with Dhoni. We just talked when I was playing at CSK; other than that, we haven’t communicated. More than ten years have passed. Maybe he has a reason, but I don’t. The reasons are unknown to me. We used to converse during our IPL games at CSK, but that conversation was only on the field. He didn’t visit my room after that, and I didn’t visit his,” Harbhajan stated in a interview.

You know what’s the best part ?
MS Dhoni knows what kind of character Harbhajan is , and he still doesn’t care and treats him the same way.
He doesn’t bother about anyone let anyone bother him.

India won two World Cups with Dhoni and Harbhajan.
In relation to MS Dhoni and Harbhajan Singh, the mysterious pair was an essential component of Team India. Together, the two legends won the inaugural T20 global Cup in 2007 and the ODI World Cup at home in 2011, reclaiming their title as global champions. In contrast, Harbhajan had a successful run in both competitions, taking seven and nine wickets for a winning team, respectively.
While Dhoni was perfect in his charismatic demeanour and leadership, he played the part of an alchemist. Even though he didn’t have much of an impact at bat in the T20I World Cup, the former skipper guided a youthful Team India. But he stepped up to the plate on the biggest occasion, leading India to victory with a generous 91-run performance off just 79 balls in the 2011 ODI World Cup final.
