The 2011 World Cup-winning Indian spinner called himself a “proud Indian,” denouncing former Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq for saying that Harbhajan Singh wanted to adhere to the “teachings” of an Islamic preacher.
Reposting a video in which Inzamam talked about how the star spinner would go with other Indian players to hear the teachings given by Pakistani Islamic preacher Tariq Jameel and was impressed by them, Harbhajan took to X and let out his frustration.
“Is it true that you can’t just jump right in? Harbhajan posted on X, “I am a proud Sikh and Indian. Yeh Bakwaas log kuch bi bakte hai.

In the video, Inzamam narrated the conversation he had with Harbhajan and how he expressed his desire to follow Jameel.
“Maulana Tariq Jameel would talk to us during our playing days and preach Islam after evening prayers. We used to invite Irfan Pathan, Mohammad Kaif and Zaheer Khan to come and offer Namaz with us,” Inzamam said in the viral video.”Some other players, including Harbhajan Singh, would also accompany us and listen to the teachings of Tariq Jameel. Harbhajan used to tell me that I feel like following the teachings of the Maulana (Tariq Jameel),” Inzamam added.
After retiring from cricket, Inzamam worked as Pakistan’s chief selector but ended up stepping down from the post at the end of last month.
Inzamam confirmed his resignation as chief selector on SAMAA TV’s show ‘Zor Ka Jor’ which was reported by Dawn.

Inzamam’s resignation was officially accepted by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), which also announced the formation of a five-person fact-finding committee to investigate conflict of interest claims that had been picked up by the local press. The accusations concern the selection procedure used by the team.
The chairmanships of the national men’s and junior selection committees have been accepted by the Pakistan Cricket Board, which will appoint a replacement in due course. Inzamam-ul-Haq voluntarily left his post on October 30 to give the PCB a chance to transparently investigate the claims of conflict of interest,” the PCB said in a statement.
