I was saved by God, says Harbhajan Singh

Indian cricket star Harbhajan Singh was among thousands of people stranded by flash floods and landslides in the country's north that have left more than 100 people dead.

The 32-year-old was taking part in a pilgrimage to a Sikh shrine in the northern state of Uttarakhand when torrential rains forced him to take shelter in a police centre.

Singh said: “I came to seek blessings. Some people are saying that we’re stuck but I wouldn’t say that we’re stuck, I’d say we’ve been saved by God,” he said.u00a0
