There’s quite a buzz around IPL franchise Lucknow Super Giants following their loss against the Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow recently. The LSG owner, Sanjiv Goenka, was seen having an animated chat with his skipper KL Rahul following the big defeat and it set the social media ablaze.
India legend Harbhajan Singh suggested that such discussions should not have taken place out in the open and could hamper the team’s environment.
The former Indian offspinner suggested that it was normal to have disagreements with the management but resolution of these conflicts should have been done more privately.
“There can be differences between the captain and the management but the talks should be behind doors which is better for everyone. The talks should have been inside the dressing room. Whatever talks are going on, it is not good for the team’s atmosphere,” Harbhajan said on Star Sports.

Bhajji then cited his time with Kolkata Knight Riders and the owner Shah Rukh Khan. He was all praise to the KKR owner and mentioned that he was someone who did not get involved in cricketing matters.

“KKR is a great unit, huge fan of Khan sahab. Hats off to that guy, he just doesn’t interfere at all when it comes to cricket. Their dressing room looks very secure,” Harbhajan said.
The former KKR man reckons that a good mentor would have to make sure that the entire team is on the same wavelength.

“That’s what a good mentor does, wherever he goes, to ensure that everyone is on the same page and plays as one unit. A happy team is a winning team,” he said.
