The verbal duel Harbhajan Singh and Tanvir Ahmed escalated further, as the former Pakistan cricketer shared a video slamming the retired India spinner on social media.

Speaking to the media, Harbhajan said in Ranchi, "India will win the match. Pakistan has a spinner (Usman Tariq), he is a good spinner, we have to play him safely."

Harbhajan Singh lambasted former Pakistan cricketer Tanvir Ahmed for blowing his interview with Usman Tariq out of proportion.
