“Jitaya Maine Nehi, Jitaya Harbhajan Singh Ne Tha” : Gambhir Makes Another Head-Turning Statement

In recent years, Gautam Gambhir has made headlines with his unique take on Team India’s cricket achievements, particularly their World Cup wins under MS Dhoni’s captaincy. His most recent remark during the Asia Cup 2023 match between India and Pakistan added another layer to his evolving perspective.

While commentating on the India-Pakistan match, the broadcaster flashed a 2010 game where Gambhir was named Player of the Match for his 83 runs. However, Gambhir surprised many by attributing the victory to Harbhajan Singh, emphasizing that the batter who scores the winning run is the true match-winner.

This statement comes in line with Gambhir’s previous comments about not celebrating individual heroics, such as MS Dhoni’s famous World Cup-winning six, without acknowledging the contributions of other players like Yuvraj Singh, Zaheer Khan, Suresh Raina, and Munaf Patel.

Gambhir’s evolving perspective challenges the cricket world’s tendency to focus on individual brilliance over team efforts, leaving fans and pundits alike intrigued by his shifting stance on the subject.
