Harbhajan Singh’s second victim was Adam Gilchrist.Harbhajan Singh, who became the first Indian to take a hat-trick in Test cricket, has slammed Adam Gilchrist for his tweet on the Turbanators historic feat against Australia in the 2001 Test.
In the legendary Test match at Eden Gardens, Singh had bowled a memorable spell to lead India to a famous win. His hat-trick victims were Ricky Ponting, Adam Gilchrist, and Shane Warne.

But Gilchrist’s response did not go down well with the former India off-spinner who wrote, “U think u would have survived for long if not first ball ? Stop crying over these things mate. Thought u would talk sense after ur playing days.. but few things never change u r the prime example of that. Always crying”

Jasprit Bumrah became the third Indian bowler to get a hat-trick in Test cricket during the second Test against West Indies at Sabina Park.
