"At the end of the day, 11 people walk in to do the job for the team. It doesn't matter whether you're No. 3 or No. 4 or No. 6, or whatever number," he explained.
On the most cherished moment of his career, Harbhajan recalled,"...Against Australia in 2001, and the second moment when we became the No. 1 side in the world. That was very satisfying."
Dubbed feisty for his aggression, Harbhajan said he has become mature with age.
Harbhajan said combining with the legendary Anil Kumble was one of the best learning experiences for him.
"Obviously it was great to have Anil Kumble on the other side, a guy like him who's got such experience with him. One thing I've always cherished, when he was playing, he was one guy who would never give up.
Queried about the form slump of the team, Harbhajan said amends can be made for the debacles of the past few months if the team clicks in unison. He also defended his prediction of a 4-0 win for India in the series starting tomorrow.
