Speaking of the tweet, the journalist wrote: ‘Misbah-ul-Haq owns Harbhajan Singh’. He also shared an image where it showed that Misbah scored 227 runs off 332 balls across all three formats against Harbhajan without being dismissed a single time. But, fans did not like the tweet from the journalist and they started to slam him on the social media platform. They remind him that despite such a record, Harbhajan has World Cups that Misbah does not have.

In the 20-20 World Cup final in 2007, the former Pakistan batter smashed three sixes in a single over of the offspinner. Then, in the first match of this ongoing LLC Masters, Misbah again hit two sixes off the former spinner. So, the former Pakistan batter has always enjoyed facing Harbhajan. Speaking of the international career of these players, Misbah played 276 matches for the Men in Green across all three formats. In those matches, he scored 11132 runs at an average of 44.35. He also managed to hit 10 centuries and 84 fifties in his career. On the other hand, Harbhajan Singh played 367 matches across all three formats for the Men in Blue. In those matches, he grabbed 711 wickets, including 28 fifers and five 10-fers.
