Mallya reignites battle with Harbhajan on Twitter

They may have averted a face-off in the court, but liquor baron Vijay Mallya seems determined to take the fight with cricketer Harbhajan Singh forward, even if in a humorous way.

Having taken several jibes at him on Twitter earlier as well, Mallya again took a dig at the off-spinner who has been forced out of the Indian team with a stomach injury.

Mallya wrote, @TheVijayMallya, "India will miss my good friend and stalwart Bhajji. His stomach muscles seem to have "made it large". We wish him a speedy recovery."

The comment is clearly aimed at Harbhajan's make it large commercial for a rival liquor brand.

Mallya and Harbhajan have been at loggerheads since the spinner's camp slapped a legal notice on UB Group for spoofing the cricketer in its liquor commercial.

Harbhajan, who is missing out on the last two Tests against England, has also been excluded from India's squad for the ODI series, announced on Saturday.
