Harbhajan Singh on Monday expressed happiness over his selection for the first two Test matches against England, which begins on November 15 at Ahmedabad.

Harbhajan, who returned to the national side in Test format after almost a year, slammed his critics.

"A good bowler should not be only judged by his wickets count, his skillful bowling methods should also be taken into account.

"His (a spinner's) role changes according to the wicket. Some people who have not played cricket themselves have been writing crap stuff about me. But it can't be like one-way traffic," Harbhajan was quoted as saying by PTI.

"I have seen legendary spinners like Shane Warne and Muttiah Muralitharan going wicketless in matches. Similarly, I am not a magician, I too can have rough times," he added.
