Top 5 spells of Harbhajan Singh against Australia in India

Four of Bhajji’s top 5 spells against Australia came in the famous 2001 series

#1 5/29, Mumbai (2nd Innings) – 2004

With the series already lost, India was up against Australia to salvage some pride from the fourth and final Test in Mumbai. The start wasn’t an auspicious one for the Indians as they crumbled to a total of 104 in their first innings.

The worst part was that Australia managed a lead of 99 runs in their innings to leave India in more than a spot of bother. Aided by half-centuries from Sachin Tendulkar and VVS Laxman, India set Australia a target of 107 to win the series by 3-0.

Harbhajan Singh went wicketless in the 1st innings, but made up for it by snapping five Aussies at the cost of 29 runs. Riding on Bhajji’s brilliance India managed to bundle the Aussies out for 93 runs to take home a solitary victory.
