That fierce rivalry...
Harbhajan Singh and Andrew Symonds were involved in an ugly spat during the infamous Sydney Test in 2008. The Mumbai Indians player launched his 18-ball 49 with a six and four off Symonds' final over in their last IPL encounter at the D Y Patil Stadium recently.

T time today
T Suman would not have been pleased with Harbhajan's invective send-off during their last game at DY Patil. Harbhajan, who was fined $15,000 for his outburst, explained that his show of emotion was because Suman had hit him for a couple of sixes in the 2009.
Roach's revenge?
The first-leg match against Mumbai Indians was Kemar Roach's debut IPL game and Roach's pride was pricked when Harbhajan smashed him for three fours and one six in his final over to spoil his otherwise impressive performance. Roach would seek revenge today for sure.
Sharma, Jaskaran humiliation
Jaskaran Singh had to cope with the humiliation of being asked to stop bowling midway through the over after two consecutive beamers to Harbhajan and the nervous Sikh was quick to apologise to Harbhajan.u00a0 Rohit Sharma, who filled in to complete Jaskaran's final over, was greeted with three fours of his first three balls. Jaskaran and Rohit have some point to prove to the MI player today.
Gilly danda
If Harbhajan's heroics with the bat towards the end of the Mumbai innings were not enough, he rubbed insult to injury by rocking Chargers' boat on the second ball of their innings by claiming the wicket of skipper Adam Gilchrist. Knowing Gilly's reputation, it could be pay back time today
