IPL 2019 has been a revival of many players, and one big name on the list has been Harbhajan Singh.

In his four games for Chennai Super Kings, Harbhajan has taken seven wickets with an economy rate of 5.12.

More recently the 39-year old set social media on fire with his off-field exploits. In a video posted on Twitter, Harbhajan can be seen performing Silambam, an ancient fighting style mentioned in the Tamil Sangam literature dated back to 400 BCE. It is a weapon-based martial art of India, more specifically from Tamilakam in the Indian subcontinent.

Harbhajan's fans lauded his efforts to settle into Tamil culture, ever since he joined the Chennai franchise.

The off-spinner was picked up by the CSK in 2018, after winning three IPL titles with his former side, Mumbai Indians. He then went on to win his fourth IPL trophy with his new franchise.

The ‘Turbanator’ got off to a brilliant start in IPL 2019, when he ripped through RCB's top order. Harbhajan dismissed Virat Kohli, Ab de Villiers and Moeen Ali in his four overs as he gave only 20 runs his first spell. CSK next face RCB on Sunday and with familiar foes in sigyt, Harbhajan would be looking to go all out on the RCB batting order.
