i think harbhajan shud b in the playing 11 as he is a match winner. i agree that india shud go with only 1 spl. spinner and 3 pacers. but in my opinion the spinner shud be bhajji and not kumble. nothing against kumble, but i feel bhajji can win matches for india on his own.
harbhajan should play when he is in good for. balaji has not bowled well in this series hence nehra should be given a chance.zaheer should play as he has always performed very well against pakistan
indians had not learned from past indian team still goes with seniority i think for pakistans match harbhajan will be right option instead of anil kumble he is in form bowler you should try with harbhajan.
i quite feel the fact that pakis have never faced harbhajan in a one dayer might work to our advantage!! they have played kumble on numerous occassions and although he has come out on top on a few occassions, harbhajan could have been a difficult change for them.
Ashish Shukla has gone bonkers or does he live in an another planet. One of the reasons that he gives for not playing Harbhajan against Pakistan is that 'Another factor working against Harbhajan is that he has never played in a match against Pakistan in his career'. There can't be a sillier and stupid argument then this. Long live Rediff.com
hello, it is sad that we will not see bhajji bowling in the crucial tie against Pakistan. He has been the bowler who has silenced many oppositions. And now with Tendulkar doing a good job as a spinner, bhajji has sidlined. There is no doubt about the decision taken by the Indian think tank is good, but what if sachin fails to deliver both with the ball and bat?
