Sreesanth Drops Big Claim on Harbhajan Singhs Slapgate Incident
The Slapgate Scandal has remained the most infamous one in Indian cricket history. Harbhajan Singh slapped Sreesanth after an IPL match, igniting the controversy. Recently, it was revealed by Sreesanth that Harbhajan made approximately 1 crore rupees from this incident with ad referencing.

The IPL has always been filled with scandals, which have played a role in making the tournament famous. The one controversy that will always be remembered by the Indian fans is the Slapgate Scandal, where Harbhajan Singh slapped his Indian teammate S Sreesanth. This happened after the clash between MI and KXIP, and strict actions were taken.
While it has been almost two decades since the incident took place, it still remains one which affects Sreesanth to a great extent. This incident has been reignited recently, as Sreesanth has dropped a big claim over the same. He has said that Harbhajan Singh went on to make a huge amount of money from this controversy, and later told Sreesanth to post a story.
In an interview, Sreesanth said, “Harbhajan made around Rs 80 lakh to Rs 1 crore off it. He then called me and asked me to post a story about it. I told him, 'I'll forgive but I'll never forget.’”
Our Take
Sreesanth has made some big claims on Harbhajan Singh, as Bhajji took advantage of the controversy to make money. However, it should be noted that Harbhajan Singh is yet to issue a statement on this matter. Fans are also searching for the ad referencing Harbhajan, where this matter escalated after 18 years. While the controversy came to an end long time back, such incidents have taken place, which reignited the same to a great extent.
