Q: What are your favourite groups or singers? A: I don't listen to English music much. I just listen to my Punjabi music, my culture music. Q: What do the Indian team do to relax? A: They go shopping. VVS Laxman, especially. He just loves shopping. The luggage men told him not to buy anything. He already has 12 bags. Q: What has been your best moment in cricket? A: When I got 32 wickets against Australia and got my hat-trick against them in Calcutta.
Q: Who are your cricketing idols? A: My all-time idols are Sachin Tendulkar, Kapil Dev and Steve Waugh. It is an honour for me to play with Tendulkar and share the same dressing room with him. Hopefully he will get a hundred in his 100th Test. Q: Which three famous people - alive or dead - would you invite to a dinner party? A: I would invite Sir Don Bradman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. And there are lots of girls, I don't know which one to invite. Sonali Bendre: she's an actress in India. Q: Tell us something we don't know about Harbhajan A: I just love sleeping.
Q: What is your favourite song ever? A: There are quite a few. You must have heard about Bheegi Bheegi Raton Mein. That's a good song, sung by Adnan Sami. Q: Which members of the Indian squad are the most fun on a night out? A: I'd say I'm a fun member. Zaheer Khan and Ashish Nehra are fun. Yuvraj Singh is not here, but when he was here in England we had great fun. Q: What is your most embarrasing moment in cricket? A: When I was bowling in Bangalore. The stadium was packed and I was just trying to go to my run-up and I slipped over and the whole crowd was laughing at me. |
