The former Punjab cricketer was known for his ability to bowl across formats with an extensive skill set in his armoury. He had a unique whiplash action and was not a conventional finger spinner as he did not always toss up the ball often. He majorly dealt with varying lengths with different speeds and subtle variations.
Harbhajan, or ‘Bhajji’ as he was called, was one of the best spinners of his time, picking up 417 wickets in Test cricket, 269 wickets in ODIs and 25 wickets in T20Is. He is the fourth-highest wicket-taker in Tests for India after Anil Kumble, Ravichandran Ashwin and Kapil Dev. He also has two Test centuries and nine half-centuries in his name, with a top score of 115.
Harbhajan, one of India’s long-time servants, who thrived under captains Sourav Ganguly and MS Dhoni, played in the finals of the 2003 World Cup and picked up two wickets. India, however, went on to lose that match to Australia by 125 runs. He was one of the core members of the team in the 2007 T20 World Cup and 2011 World Cup.
