The veteran India off-spinner gave it back to a fan who wanted to one of his tweets to be translated to English.

Bhajji posted an inspirational message in Hindi and tweeted: “I found these Superb words just sharing with u all (sic)”

A follower replied to his post and said: “Kripya English mein Translate karein.”

It prompted Harbhajan to lose his cool and the Turbanator instantly replied: “Kripya aap angrejo ka naakab nikalo chehre se.. har Hindustani Hindi samjta hai bhai ji. (sic)” [Please take the English mask off your face. Every Indian understands Hindi, brother.]
