I think Dhoni believes in Joginder than this guy himself. It was a big gamble to have him bowl the last overs in the semi and the final. We had some luck too - to be fair. I understand that Dhoni didnt have any other option too and it was only wise enough not to bowl Bhajji after this guy was pelted for 3 sixes in his over. Wonder what kind of experience bhajji is bringing in to such a crunch situation.?! one six in an over is acceptable - this being a T20 match. But three 6s??!! No brainer... cant even think?? Bowled FULL toss!!! Unacceptable... Someone like Yusuf playing in his first match bowled beautifully.
I would say Harbhajan's inability to bowl a fairly expensive over had ALMOST cost us the T20 cup. LET HIM KNOW THAT. Because I see him to be over rated player and he thinks he is unremovable. Surely an attitude problem. Can see it in his face.

exactly, bhajji is certainly overrated player, never performs well in pressure situation, lost the ability to take wickets and also he thinks he is the best spinner in india. I heard him telling he took loads of wickets in county and t-20 ,he was alomst a failure in county..and in t-20 you dont need to be a good bowler to take wickets...I prefer powar anyday as a spinner...

It was Bhajji the so called experienced bowler nearly lost the cup for India till Joginder regained it. Misbah-ul-Haq's shots are not as great as they appear! It was Bhajji's poor bowling! I guess all three that went over the ropes were full tosses. It is a shame that Bhajji with all his experience nearly lost the cup in a single over-otherwise India would have a convincing 25 around difference victory margin.
Bhajji's expressions are more aggressive than his feats!
Muralitharan rightly remarked about him "Indian society makes heroes out of even common average cricketers"
