He wrote on Twitter:“Only 2 in my 103 tests.. Kumble and my test wicket count would have been something else if we got wickets like last 4 years we playing on.”Harbhajan Turbanator@harbhajan_singhOnly 2 in my 103 tests.. Kumble and my test wicket count would have been something else if we got wickets like last 4 years we playing on twitter.com/ankit_sharma03…Ankit_S@Ankit_sharma03@harbhajan_singh U didnt complain duringInd vs sa, Kanpur, 2008Ind vs Aus, Mumbai 2004516129@harbhajan_singh U didnt complain duringInd vs sa, Kanpur, 2008Ind vs Aus, Mumbai 2004Only 2 in my 103 tests.. Kumble and my test wicket count would have been something else if we got wickets like last 4 years we playing on👊 twitter.com/ankit_sharma03…It's worth mentioning that Kumble has the most Test wickets for India, i.e., 619 wickets in 132 Tests. Meanwhile, Harbhajan has scalped 417 wickets in 103 Tests. He is behind Kumble, Ravichandran Ashwin (449*) and Kapil Dev (434).After the 2011 World Cup, Harbhajan was phased out of the Indian team as Ashwin became the new lead off-spinner.In an interview last year, Harbhajan said that he could have added 100-150 wickets if he had a chance to play for another 4-5 years.Speaking to Zee News, he said:“I was 31 when I took 400 wickets and if I would have played another 4-5 years, keeping in mind the kind of standards I had set for myself, I can tell you that I would have taken another 100-150 wickets or more.”Meanwhile, the hosts will look to seal their fifth consecutive Test series against Australia at home.
