'Looks like specially made for CSK' - Harbhajan Singh hilariously trolls RCB skipper Virat Kohli

It’s official that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) will host the much-awaited 13th edition of the Indian Premier League from September 19 to November 8 in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). As the announcement of the cash-rich league has been made, the players have also kickstarted their banter with each other on social media. On Friday, spin legend Harbhajan Singh took a friendly jibe at the current Indian skipper Virat Kohli as the latter posted a promotional tweet on Twitter.

Harbhajan would be representing the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) under the leadership of Mahendra Singh Dhoni while Virat will lead his team Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2020. The tournament was supposed to start on March 29,2020, with the inaugural match between Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings.

However, the rise in the coronavirus cases in India compelled BCCI to postpone the league for an indefinite time. The cricket board has finally decided to organize the tournament from September as the T20 World Cup 2020 and Asia Cup 2020 stands cancelled for this year.

The Indian skipper is the Brand Ambassador of the Puma brand. Promoting the shoes launched by the company, Kohli uploaded a video on his official Twitter handle. Coincidentally, the shoes endorsed by Kohli were yellow in color. Noticing the same, Harbhajan trolled Virat saying that it looks like the shoes are specially made for his team CSK.

Bhajji tweeted, “Looks like Specially made for CSK.”

The announcement of the commencement of season 13 of the Indian Premier League from September in UAE was made by the IPL chairman Brijesh Patel. BCCI has decided to host the tournament outside India as the Indian government has put a temporary halt on overseas travel in the wake of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

All the players are expected to reach their respective IPL camps a few weeks before the start of the tournament. However, the Indian players are likely to have a national camp in Ahmedabad’s Motera Cricket Stadium before joining their respective franchises in the UAE.
