Harbhajan Singh may have returned from Down Under, but he is still on the radar of the Aussies. Cricket Australia (CA) has asked for an action against the turbunator for allegedly calling Matthew Hayden 'a liar'. And the Indian Cricket Board (BCCI) in turn, has told Bhajji to keep quiet.
The spinner apparently in an interview has also said that Australian wicketkeeper-batsman Adam Gilchrist was "no saint."
Reacting to media reports, Cricket Australia chief executive James Sutherland has shot off a letter to BCCI Secretary Niranjan Shah, in which he was quoted as saying: "Enough is enough. Despite assurances that you have instructed him not to fuel this issue any more, Harbhajan continues to say whatever he wants. When will it ever end? Could you please deal with your player in regard to these comments.
"We've certainly, through our actions with Matthew Hayden, been firm with our own players in terms of where the tipping point is."
"We believe it is possible to make intelligent, thoughtful and even provocative public comment without descending to personal abuse."
