it does not matter if you hold it in your right or left hand.

Nor does it matter your grip, however, your hand will tire faster, and your pencil strokes will be less fluid if you hold the pencil too tightly.

What hardness of lead is generally used for freehand sketching?

I keep a 2H, an HB and a 4B pencil in my sketching kit. The 2H pencil gives me lighter lines, holds its point better and is best to define the side of a figure in full light or the backgrounds of landscapes. The HB pencil, is readily available, holds a point for a short time, and is used to do light shading, to define central areas of a figure or middle distance of a landscape. The 4B pencil is of a softer lead, is great for shading and blending, and can be used on its side to give larger strokes of colour.
