His career was initially affected by investigations in to the legality of his bowling action, as well as several disciplinary incidents. However, in 2001, with leading leg spinner Anil Kumble injured, Harbhajan's career was resuscitated after Indian captain Sourav Ganguly called for his inclusion in the border-Gavaskar Trophy Team. In that series victory over Australia, Harbhajan established himself as the team leading spinner by taking 32 wicket, becoming the First Indian bowler to take a hat trick in Test Cricket.

Harbhajan reclaimed a regular position in the team upon his return in the late 2004, bu often found himself watching from the sidelines in Test matches outsides the Indian subcontinent with typically only one spinner, Kumble being used.
