[Watch] Harbhajan Singh keeps promise of gifting his blazer to cameraperson after BGT 2024-25 2nd Test
Former Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh kept his promise by gifting his blazer to a camera person after the second Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 Test at the Adelaide Oval. Australia won the pink-ball Test by 10 wickets to draw parity in the five-match series.
Harbhajan was present at the Adelaide Oval and was spotted carrying the Border-Gavaskar Trophy alongside former Aussie skipper Ricky Ponting. The trophy was placed in the center of the ground before the start of the Test match. Harbhajan was also part of the commentary team throughout the Test.
After the Test, he shared a video of presenting his blazer to a cameraperson inside the ground. Harbhajan helped the guy put on the blazer and both exchanged pleasantries before the video ended.

"Let's focus on cricket rather than all these controversies" - Harbhajan Singh on Siraj-Head verbal spat
The verbal exchange between Mohammed Siraj and Travis Head has been one of the major talking points of the Adelaide Test. The Indian pacer gave Head, who scored a brilliant 140 off 141 balls, an animated send-off after dismissing him. The southpaw also didn't hold himself back and hurled some expletives at the bowler on his way back to the dressing room.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) has also sanctioned both cricketers for their antics in Adelaide.
Now that the ICC has sanctioned the cricketers, Harbhajan Singh reckons that players should end the matter and move forward to the next Test.
"Well, I think ICC is a bit too strict on players. These things happen in the ground. Obviously, forget what has happened and move forward. The players have patched up and talked to each other. Anyways, ICC being ICC has sanctioned the players. Let's put that aside now and let's move forward which is obviously, Brisbane. Let's focus on cricket rather than all these controversies. Enough is enough," Harbhajan said on Star Sports via India Today.
The third Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 Test will start in Brisbane on Saturday, December 14.
