One of India's best off-spinners, Harbhajan enjoyed a rather successful career and blossomed into a go to man for the captains he played under. The turbanator's special skill coupled with his understanding of the game made him an important asset to the Indian team.

Harbhajan enjoyed a unique partnership with fellow spinner Anil Kumble and the duo caused many problems for the opposition batsmen. With a clever doosra and a deceptive arm ball in his kitty, he managed to cause nightmares for the Australians in March 2001, the same series in which he emerged as the first Indian to take a hat-trick in test matches.

The off-spinner has picked 417 wickets from 103 matches but has remained out of international cricket for a long time.
