Modi released the long-unseen footage of the infamous 2008 IPL “slapgate” incident on Michael Clarke’s Beyond23 Cricket Podcast on August 29. The video showed Harbhajan Singh slapping Sreesanth during a match in Mohali. In 2008, the footage between Harbhajan and Sreesanth was not shown on television.
Sreesanth tried to charge at Harbhajan before players from both sides stepped in to defuse the situation. Harbhajan was banned for the remainder of the season and has publicly apologized for the incident on multiple occasions.
Sreesanth played 90 matches for India in his international cricketing career. He picked up 169 wickets across formats. The Kerala pacer was also part of the squads that clinched the 2007 T20 World Cup and the 2011 ODI World Cup.
