Harbhajan Singh

Full name Harbhajan Singh
Born July 3, 1980, Jullundur (now Jalandhar), Punjab
Major teams India, Punjab, Surrey
Batting style Right-hand bat
Bowling style Right-arm offbreak

Harbhajan Singh is an exciting off-spinner, who looks to be the only one at the moment capable of carrying on India's tradition of spin bowling after Anil Kumble. At the time of Harbhajan Singh's initiation into test cricket, his arm action, which to some seemed like chucking, came under a glare, thus putting his career in jeopardy. Harbhajan fought his way back and came out an even more improved bowler. Harbhajan Singh's brightest moment in test cricket came in the series against Australia when he took 32 wickets in 3 tests. His haul of wickets included a hat-trick, a rare feat by an Indian in test cricket.

Harbhajan Singh's detractors point out that the off-spinner's test record pales out if one can considers his away record. In home series, Harbhajan Singh averages little over 25 but his away average stands at ungainly 40s. With the bat, Harbhajan Singh can be extremely entertaining and has scored over 2000 runs in first class cricket. The Turbanator, as Harbhajan Singh is fondly called, has come up with a special bowling variation, which he calls a doosra. livescore.warofcricket.com gives information on Harbhajan Singh and other Great Cricket Players.
