The 33-year-old, however, could have played more international cricket, a fact that he regrets. "I sat on the bench for 32 matches," Bhandari said.

He was also disappointed that none of the IPL franchises showed interest in him and now hopes to become a coach. He had a pretty successful domestic career, picking up 314 scalps from 95 first-class matches and 153 wickets in 105 List-A games.
