‘Bhajji’ as fondly addressed by his fans, was one of the most successful Indian bowlers in the 2000s. An off-spinner who could bat a little bit in the lower order, he often made valuable contributions to the team and always remained in limelight. His most important asset throughout his career has been his ability to stop the flow of runs.

Harbhajan was an integral part of the teams which won the T20 World Cup in 2007 and the ICC Cricket World Cup in 2011. The Jalandhar-born player is a great spinner of the ball and even managed to scalp a hat-trick in Test Cricket. Even today, in IPL he has proved his value with the ball and featured regularly in all the matches.

In his 236 match ODI career, he scalped 269 wickets at an average of 33.36 and an economy rate of 4.3. These include 3 five-wicket hauls and two four-wicket hauls. In this playing XI, he will play the role of the lead spinner.
