Harbhajan is a genius when it comes to bowling the opponents out, if only he is focused. He has many a tricks up his sleeve to bundle the opponents out.
On Thursday, Nov 20, 2008, he had a new one, where he slowed the bowl in the air and claimed 3/31, leading India to win by 16 runs in a shortened match against England.
Bhajji was declared Man of the Match for his superb performance.
This time Bhajji shone up with his bat rather than his spinning fingers. When India was in need to score, it was Harbhajan Singh who rose to rescue India after the top order Indian batsmen struggled against Johnson.
Harbhajan smashed 54 as India, replying to Australia's first innings
total of 430, recovered from 155-5 to 313-8 by stumps on the third day
at the Chinnaswamy stadium.

Ishant Sharma (3/20) bowled out the home team for a paltry 136 on a
dramatic fourth day's play which saw as many as 16 wickets fall. Harbhajan Singh claimed 10 wickets, as India
defeated Sri Lanka convincingly by 170 runs to win the second Test on

Colombo. The teams now return to Colombo for the series decider
beginning on August 8.
Harbhajan Singh shone up on the second day of the second Test against Sri Lanka. He took four quick wickets leading to an evenly poised test. It can tilt in any direction over the course of next three days.
