The veteran Indian spinner, Harbhajan Singh took a dig at South Africa, making fun of the batting performance of the team in the ongoing three-match Test series against the Indian team. On an Instagram post shared by Jonty Rhodes, Harbhajan went on to ask the former South Africa batsman to come and bat for the visitors for some consolation in the third Test, starting on Saturday in Ranchi.
