Cricket enthusiasts are experiencing a great time as they watch their beloved retired cricketers playing in the ongoing Legends League Cricket (LLC) Masters. The tournament features several former India internationals like Gautam Gambhir, Harbhajan Singh, Suresh Raina among others, who are still putting up impressive performances and entertaining their fans.
During the match between India Maharajas, led by Gambhir, and World Giants, captained by Aaron Finch, off-spinner Harbhajan stole the show with his outstanding delivery.
Harbhajan’s spinning delivery in the third over of the Giants’ innings left the crowd awestruck. The ball spun sharply and beat the great Chris Gayle, who failed to judge it and saw his stumps rattled. Harbhajan’s delivery was compared to Shane Warne’s iconic “Ball of the Century” that he had bowled to dismiss Mike Gatting in the 1993 Old Trafford Ashes Test.
The delivery left Gayle baffled as he struggled to come to terms with the brilliance of the delivery. Even Harbhajan was taken aback by his own delivery, and his teammates congratulated him for getting the team their first breakthrough.
Coming to the match, Giants posted a total of 166/8 on the board after opting to bat first. Skipper Finch scored 53 off 31 balls while Shane Watson smashed 32-ball 55. Harbhajan was the pick of the bowlers for the Maharajas with four wickets for 13 runs in his two overs.
In reply, Maharaj fell just two runs shorts of the target as Giants pacer Brett Lee defended 7 runs in the final over the match. For Maharajas, captain Gambhir top-scored with 68 runs off 42 balls.
