Harbhajan ‘Turbanator’ Singh is a live wire. He does not shy away from showing trolls where they belong and always gives back to anybody who decides to test his patience or ridicule him. Unlike many celebrities who choose to ignore these trolls, Bhajji is not afraid to stir the waters to shut them down.
A similar incident happened when the Turbanator posted a picture of himself with the caption “Back to the basics” on Twitter, on November 22, 2017. If I may say so myself, he looked pretty devoted to improving his style.

But as is the case with any celebrity picture, there was one user, or should I say troll, Noel Smith who thought it necessary to tell our very own Bhajji to retire.
As the saying goes "U can't teach an old dog new tricks"Bhajji ur best days r over realise it n call it a day.Retire with grace from international cricket.Dont make a fool of iurself like some of ur predecessors.is all I can say.

In no time, Bhajji’s fans rushed to defend the player but the man did not stop there and continued to rain insults on him.
He's in the past tense for the Indian selectors.He begged dhoni to let him play his 100th test.if it wasn't for MSD he wud hav been history long ago.Go play marbles young man

He even proceeded to say that if Harbhajan does not retire gracefully, he will be kicked out. I don’t know about you, but I cannot imagine the nerve of this man!
Like his predecessors he"ll b kicked out so send him a msg to retire gracefully

Although Bhajji’s fans continued to berate the guy, he refused to back down and even said that he doesn’t deserve a chance on the field.
He's not getting any chances bcoz he doesn't deserve anymore.he is past his sell by date.Go take a jump….

Finally, it was enough for Harbhajan and he decided to shut down the troll himself. Not only that, with his reply, he taught a lesson to all of us that it’s never too late to learn anything new.
Old dog like u can only bark..so plz continue to do that.this is what u have learn I think all ur life..you have already lost the battle coz u have given up on learning new things.everyday there is new thing to learn. Provided we want to learn.dont teach others ur ways https://t.co/anTNHCeBxy

Harbhajan just bowled him over with his reply, didn’t he? We bet trolls will think twice before locking horns with the mighty turbanator. Also, I think it’s safe to say… Howzzatt!!
