<p>Harbhajan said it is a ploy by Hayden to sell his book."I don't know why he (Hayden) made such claims. I got him out several times in my career and why would I be scared of facing the Australians when I have done well against them. I have proved my worth playing 93 Tests. I think it is a good way for him to sell his book," Harbhajan said on the sidelines of a promotional event.<br /><br />In his autobiography 'Standing My Ground', Hayden wrote: "When Ganguly and Harbhajan went out to see the deck a couple of days before the game, they looked like farmers inspecting crops after a hail storm. We predicted neither would play, and they did not. We put their ailments down to acute cases of 'greentrackitis', where you develop a severe intolerance to green wickets likely to give you nothing as a spin bowler and plenty of headaches as a batsman."<br /><br />Asked if the Australians are playing mind games by making such comments ahead of the World Cup, Harbhajan said: "We do not get affected by all these comments. It is not surprising to hear these things just before the World Cup."<br /><br />Harbhajan said he was looking to avenge the loss of the 2003 World Cup final against Australia this time. "They have a strong unit but I am looking forward to compete against them. They are playing well and have beaten England convincingly in the ongoing ODI series. So, it will be tough to beat them," he said.<br /><br />Harbhajan also lashed out at former India coach Greg Chappell saying the former Australian captain divided the team during his two-year tenure. <br /><br />"We all know what happened when Chappell was the coach. His coaching policies divided the players and the team's performance was the worst in my memory," said Harbhajan.</p>
