Harbhajan Singh is a great, while he's just stepping on to cricket's ladder, R Ashwin tells Sanjjeev K Samyal in an interview in the Hindustan Times. So, the offspinner is willing to wait his turn and is just concentrating on making good use of the opportunity whenever it presents itself.
"I don't go on the field telling myself 'I have to win against this guy'. I play this game only for fun and if there wasn't fun in it, I wouldn't be playing ... Playing together against West Indies and Australia [with Harbhajan in the World Cup] was brilliant. Every time I had something to say, I would go and tell him. It was easy for him to shut out a youngster, but he didn't and we always had a good chat."
