He helped his side reach the finals of the cup however they were unable to win the championship as they lost that match to Chennai Super Kings. Even though his influence and advice helped the teams on many accounts Harbhajan failed as a spinner in the last IPL; This is because it was the only season in which he couldn’t take a single wicket as he recorded his worst economy rate of 9.

Over the last few hours reports have suggested that Harbhajan has decided to retire as a player from the IPL; moreover, the rumours further state that the spinner is likely to act as a coach for one of the franchises in the upcoming season. A source linked with the rumour stated that “The role could be that of a consultant, mentor or part of the advisory group but the franchise with which he is talking are keen to use his vast experience. He will take an active part in also helping the franchise decide on their auction picks.” If these rumours are true which team do you think Harbhajan is likely to join?
