'Bolne ke paise nahi lagte to kuch bhi bolde ?' - Harbhajan Singh predicts India to win Test series against Australia by 4-0

Former Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh has come up with a prediction for the scoreline of the ongoing four-match Test series between India and Australia. The turbanator has batted for India to win by a massive margin of 4-0 in the series where they are already leading by 2-0. Apart from that, Bhajji also argued that the Aussie hasn’t the firepower and instinct of a comeback that they used to have two decades before.

"I have absolutely no doubt that India will win 4-0, even if it was a 10-match series, India would have won 10-0 because Australia doesn't have any firepower,” said Harbhajan Singh to Sports Tak.

Although these comments from the former Indian spin great came up as an opportunity for fans to take a jibe at the former for underestimating the visitors; just based on the result of the first two Tests against India. A section of the cricket fans took to Twitter and advised the 42-year-old to not be so overconfident.

Here’s how fans reacted:

Bolne ke paise nahi lagte to kuch bhi bolde ? 😂👏

after 36 all out saga in ausi 2021.

All pandit predicted white wash for india but story had a twist !

n if our lower n tail don't bat well, v may have hard time in next 2 test !

Not sure why many ex-cricketers are ranting about 4-0 whitewash. If it wasn't for the lower order saving us for the umpteenth time it would have been very well 2-0 in favour of Aussies. Besides bhaji himself not being part of the squad probably helped India be where they are

This like Aussies told Indians during the bgt 2021 and the rest is history

Now we teasing Aussies may Aussies can have a comeback

The real fight will be in the WTC Final...not in this series

That is just pure arrogance. Its not like wins will be handed to India on a platter. India has to PLAY BETTER than Aus to win. If they screw up like they almost did with their batting at Kotla, they will be in line to lose.

Aussies are winning the third test.

Speaking of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023, the Rohit Sharma-led Indian team is currently leading the four-match assignment by a margin of 2-0. The hosts won the first two Tests in Nagpur and Delhi by the convincing margins of an innings and 132 runs and six wickets respectively.

Meanwhile, the Australian team has faced a lot of blows as the skipper Pat Cummins alongside senior southpaw David Warner recently flew back to their country; owing to their respective reasons and commitments. Subsequently, another important player Ashton Agar will also not be a part of the squad for the third Test in Indore.

Now, India and Australia will lock horns in the third of the four-match Test series at the Holkar Stadium in Indore; the match will commence on Wednesday, the 1^st of March next month. Following that, the Narendra Modi Stadium of Ahmedabad will host the fourth and last Test of this series between two cricketing powerhouses.
