Indian Premier League will begin from 9 April, 2021. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will begin their campaign on 11 April, 2021 against Sunrisers Hyderabad. KKR’s middle-order batsman, Nitish Rana was tested positive for Covid-19 on 22 March 2021. But later on, his reports came out negative making him available to play in the IPL 2021. KKR’s latest buy, Harbhajan Singh is looking like he is enjoying his time at KKR.
As per BCCI rules, all players must undergo a seven day mandatory quarantine in their hotel room. Harbhajan Singh was also living in quarantine but his latest results came out to be negative, thus giving him immense joy. In a recent video uploaded by KKR on their Instagram page features Harbhajan Singh who is seen coming out of his room and dancing on a popular Punjabi song. In the video, he says, “I am out because my results are out and I have to go to practice.” This suggested that Harbhajan Singh has tested negative in his recent Covid-19 test.

In a recent interview, Harbhajan Singh said that he loves Kolkata and the city of joy only brings pleasant memories to him. Harbhajan had picked a 13-wicket haul during a Test match in Kolkata in 2001-02 season against Australia. So, he has great memories of playing in Kolkata. He was bought by KKR in the second round of Auctions for 2 crore which was Harbhajan Singh’s base price.
In a team packed with quality spinners, it will be difficult to find space for Bhajji in the starting eleven for KKR.
