Sunrisers have 4 wins and are currently at the 4th position on the IPL 2022 points table.
Harbhajan was blown away by Sunrisers Hyderabad's fast bowler Umran Malik, who took the Player of the Match award against Punjab Kings in Mumbai on Sunday as he picked up his IPL best figures of 4/28.
In the last over of the first innings, he bowled a triple-wicket maiden to restrict Punjab to only 151 runs. He became only the third bowler after Lasith Malinga and Jaydev Unadkat to deliver a wicket maiden in a game's 20th over, and only the second after the Sri Lankan legend to do it in the first innings.
IPL 2022 performances will carry significant weight when the BCCI selectors sit down to choose the Indian squad for the T20 World Cup 2022 which will be played in Australia later this year.

Harbhajan Singh told Star Sports that Umran Malik should be given an India shirt soon and that he is the "most deserving one" to be a part of the T20 World Cup 2022 team.
“This (Blue) is the only jersey missing and he should get it early. I feel he is the most deserving one who should be selected to play for India in that T20 World Cup in Australia. He could be your match winner there,” he said.
Umran, who made his IPL debut for SRH last season, has already taken nine wickets at a strike rate of 14.66 this season.
With South African star Dale Steyn as the SRH bowling coach, the youngsters' blistering pace has been the talk of the town. Umran had received a lot of praise earlier this week for his brilliant yorker set-up for Kolkata Knight Riders captain Shreyas Iyer.
