Harbhajan Singh Withdraws From IPL 2020 Citing ‘Personal Reasons’

In what can be seen as a major setback for Indian Premier League (IPL) team Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Harbhajan Singh has become the second high-profile name to pull out of this season. He cited ‘personal reasons’ and said that he informed the club team management about his decision.

The 40-year-old off-spinner, who has been a part of CSK during the past two years wrote on Twitter, “Dear Friends,


I will not be playing IPL this year due to personal reasons.These are difficult times and I would expect some privacy as I spend time with my family. CSK management has been extremely supportive and I wish them a great IPL Stay safe and Jai Hind.”

Harbhajan, who is one of the most successful bowlers in the history of IPL with 150 wickets, is the second high-profile Indian cricketer to miss out of the tournament after Suresh Raina, who left Dubai to be with his family after two of his family members died in a terrible crime in Punjab.
