Harbhajan Singh is now the third Indian and the 22nd world cricketer to reach the landmark of 300 wickets in test cricket. Ricky Ponting was his 300th wicket in the test match against Australia today.

Harbhajan has had a spicy career which inclusdes his brilliant bowling, sparks of entertaining batting and a few on-field controversies including the Symmonds racial slur controversy and the Seeshanth slap incident.

His bowling is what he is known for the best. He is only the fifth spinner to get 300 wickets in test cricket.
