Tezzbuzz Desk- There have been many controversies in the history of IPL, but the ‘slap scandal’ of 2008 is still counted among the most talked about incidents. Once again this matter is in the headlines, because former fast bowler S Sreesanth has given a new statement regarding this controversy and has made serious allegations against former spinner Harbhajan Singh.

This controversy came to light after the match between Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings in the first season of IPL. After losing the match, Harbhajan Singh slapped Sreesanth in anger. The incident shocked the cricket world and Harbhajan was banned for the entire season.

Now this matter has come into discussion again due to a TV advertisement. In this advertisement that old controversy has been mentioned and Harbhajan Singh is involved in it. Regarding this, Sreesanth alleged that money is being earned by using this incident.

In an interview, Sreesanth said that he was asked to promote this advertisement, but he refused. He claims that a huge amount has been earned from this advertisement, due to which he is angry.

Sreesanth also made it clear that now there is no relation left between him and Harbhajan. He said that earlier he considered him as a brother, but after the recent incidents, he has distanced himself from him even on social media.

This controversy also came into discussion last year, when former IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi made public the footage to this incident in an interview. Even at that time both the players had reacted strongly to this.

This incident comes to the fore in some form or the other in every season of IPL. This time too, old wounds have reopened, and the debate on this issue has intensified among cricket fans. Now it remains to be seen what turn this controversy takes next.
