Harbhajan Singh reveals most embarrassing moment in cricket and it involves Adam Gilchrist

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) star Harbhajan Singh believes there could not have been a worse moment for him on the cricket field than getting out to former Australian stumper Adam Gilchrist's bowling. Gilchrist has himself been dismissed by Harbhajan Singh 11 times in Test cricket. However, he got one over his staunc rival by claiming the then Mumbai Indians star's wicket of his only delivery ever in the IPL, which also proved to be his last. The match was Adam Gilchrist's last in cricket as he called it a day after famously celebrating the wicket in the 'Gangnam Style' dance.

Playing his last match, the wicket-keeper sought to have a last laugh with the Mumbai Indians needing 51 need of the final over. Harbhajan Singh was on strike with Praveen Kumar taking the wicket-keeping gloves. Harbhajan sought to clear the fence, but was caught in the deep by Gurkeerat Singh and Gilchrist unleashed his version of the 'Gangnam style'.

The CSK spinner added that getting out to a player like Adam Gilchrist, who might have not bowled even in nets, is embarrassing and said that he made him happy, being fair enough since Harbhajan has had the better of their rivalry overall.
