Speaking in a video shared on his YouTube channel, Harbhajan Singh said, “If the conditions are good, then who would not want to go to Pakistan? We got a lot of love there. When we went to play there, the people gave a lot of love to the Indian team. Even today, there are a lot of fans in Pakistan of Virat Kohli and this Indian team and they want to see them play. But there are security issues. India have played in Pakistan in the past as well, and if the situation between the two countries improves, India will go once again.”

Harbhajan Singh told India Today: “Don’t come to India if you don’t want to, we don’t have any issues. If Pakistan don’t come to India, it won’t matter much. You may ask current cricketers and they will have the same opinion. Had the situation in Pakistan been different, things could have been different.”
