"Throwback to fatter times," Kohli captioned his post.

HERE IS THE POST:

After making his international debut in March 1998, Harbhajan represented India in 103 Tests and 236 ODIs.

However, Harbhajan's start to his Team India career didn't go so smooth as the bowler received a lot of criticism over his bowling action and over his disciplinary issues.

But it was under the guidance of Sourav Ganguly, who showed tremendous faith by replacing legendary bowler Anil Kumble with him after the veteran spinner picked up an injury ahead of the 2001 Test series against Australia.

Harbhajan repaid his skipper's faith in spectacular style, picking up 32 wickets in the three-match series.

The now 40-year-old is also the first Indian bowler to secure a hat-trick in Test during India's second match in Kolkata, which is highly regarded as one of the best performances in the history of red-ball cricket.
