The Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh, who is nursing an injury, is confident of making a comeback to competitive cricket soon.
"I am recovering from my injury,” said the experienced off spinner while speaking to media reporters on Thursday. “I will exercise here in Pune for four days and I will also undergo a three-week training at the National Cricket Academy. After that I will
return to competitive cricket," he further added.
The 31-year-old sustained an injury to his shinbone last month during a http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Kumar-Shri-Ranjitsinhji-c71870 Trophy match and has been out of action since then.
Bhajji has not been picked since the ill fated tour of England last year, where he featured in only two Test matches before returning home with an abdominal strain. He has been awaiting a call from the national selectors since then.
A spate of injuries to the Indian players was cited as one of the reasons for the whitewash in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013, across all formats.
Harbhajan, who is a veteran of 98 Tests and 229 One Day Internationals, dismissed any correlation between too much cricket and injuries.
"Injuries depend upon the capacity of any player. Injuries may vary player to player. How can one predict about injuries," said Bhajji, at the premier of the wrestling show ‘Ring ka King’. Harbhajam is the goodwill ambassador of the show.
The Turbanator, who has 406 Test and 259 ODI wickets, was noncommittal when questioned about India’s performance Down Under against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 has lost the first three Test matches.
The Indian team has performed below par against an inexperienced Australian side, in all three departments of the game, which has resulted in three consecutive losses for Dhoni’s men. The former http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Wasim-Akram-c96292, believes that Bhajji could have
made a difference to the Indian bowling attack had he been in the side.
The off-spinner was also overlooked by the Indian selectors for the ODI leg of the Australia tour as well. However, Bhajji is confident that he can make a return to the national side sooner rather than later.
India plays the fourth and final Test match at Adelaide, starting on the 24th of January. They will look to avoid another whitewash.
