S Sreesanth and Harbhajan Singh: S. Sreesanth had been one of the players in the Indian Cricket Team who had been accused of match fixing. Sreesanth was found guilty of spot fixing during the 2013 IPL tournament. He has now completed his sentence and is now working on his comeback in Team India through domestic cricket. Sreesanth, 38, yearns to play for Team India once again, but his path would not be an easy one.

Meanwhile, Sreesanth has also been quite active on social media recently. He continues to share photos online on Facebook. He has now shared a picture with his old partner and legendary spinner Harbhajan Singh. Fans started commenting as soon as Sreesanth shared a photo with Harbhajan. 

Fans reminded him of the 'Slapgate' incident of 2008. A fan wrote, "Do you remember the old IPL days?". Another questioned, "Remember the Slap?". Harbhajan Singh played for Mumbai Indians during the 2008 IPL tournament. He had slapped Sreesanth on the field, after which Sreesanth was seen crying.

'Slapgate' had become one of the biggest controversies in IPL back then. Both players had kept their distance after the incident, but looking at the new picture it seems that the two have already buried the hatchet and have become good friends. 

Sreesanth and Harbhajan were involved in a controversy in 2008 when the latter had apparently slapped Sreesanth after an IPL match in 2008. Since then, both of these players have played together on multiple occasions. In fact, both Harbhajan and Sreesanth were part of India's ICC 2011 World Cup win.
