Controversy	Controversial comments during IPL 2023 While talking to Harsha Bhogle during the post match presentation of KKR vs SRH match, Harry said that after not being able to perform in first few matches, he was being constantly mocked by the Indian fans but he was able to shut them up after scoring his maiden IPL century in the match. He further said, "I was putting pressure on myself a little bit after the first few games. You go on social media and people are calling you rubbish. You start to doubt yourself a little bit. I just went out there with an 'I don't care' mentality tonight and thankfully it came off. There are a lot of Indian fans out there who'll say 'well done' tonight. But they were slagging me off a few days ago. Glad I could shut them up, to be honest," He later issued a statement in which he expressed his regret over the statement after the Indian fans criticised him.
