Harsha Bhogle is often seen tweeting on several topics and giving his opinions on the same. Harsha Bhogle was at it once again as he gave a befitting reply to a Pakistani journalist named Shahid Hashmi who took to Twitter and ranted about how South Africa and India were not waiting for the ban on their players (Hansie Cronje and Mohammad Azharuddin respectively who were banned for life in 2000), or for the two IPL teams (CSK and RR) over a sealed envelope that made a lot of news for carrying the names of the players, who were involved in spot-fixing back in 2013.
