The veteran off-spinner who literally owned the wickets of some of the best batsmen in the game, Harbhajan Singh makes cut into the side as the lone specialist spinner. His ability to score runs has also helped the team one more than one occasion. However, his control over the ball while spinning was excellent during his heydeys and he spun a web around the opposition players. The Punjab cricketer was the crucial part of India’s historic campaign in 2011.

Bhajji played all the games of the tournament and was the best bowler of the team as far as the economy is concerned. He perfectly did the job of keeping the run-rate in check of the opponents in the middle overs which increased the pressure and also led to the wickets at the other end. He himself scalped nine wickets and was miserly conceding runs at an economy of 4.48 per over. In the final, he was at his best as he sent back one of the best players of Sri Lanka Tillakaratne Dilshan back into the hut.
