Cricketer Harbhajan Singh displayed his disapproval of Gilchrist’s comment on Sachin by lashing out at him in media.

“He should not be talking about Sachin. It is all rubbish," Harbhajan told the leading newspaper, the Age. "We don’t respect him. He pretends to be a saint and people say he walks when he nicks, but why did he appeal when batsmen don't nick?” 

“He always changes his mind according to a situation.” added Harbhajan.

 When asked about Sachin’s role as a witness in the incident in which he was accused of calling Andrew Symonds ‘monkey’, Harbhajan said, “I don’t want to talk about that episode again and again. It is over.”

“We are very focused on cricket and on the next Test in Delhi,” Harbhajan said. “We know Australia will come back very strong. It has been a great series so far.”
