Matches – 151, Wickets – 137, Economy – 7.07

Harbhajan Singh is the live-wire of IPL. He has been a consistent performer first for MI and now for CSK. He has been both an economical as well as a strike-bowler in IPL cricket. His best performance in IPL came against CSK when he took 5 for 18 in IPL 2011.

The champion off spinner could be used as a bowler in the powerplay too. Harbhajan has won matches for Mumbai with his bat with some lusty hitting at the end.

Harbhajan is the off-spinner in this team.
