Renowned sports psychologist Rudi Webster has advised banned India spinner Harbhajan Singh to seek professional help to cope with the emotional demands of competitive cricket.
Harbhajan was banned for five One-Day Internationals this week for a slapping incident involving Shanthakumaran Sreesanth during a domestic Twenty20 league match last month.
"Harbhajan must now learn to control his thinking and emotions and to keep his concentration focused and locked into the task at hand, particularly when he is under pressure," Webster told Friday's The Asian Age newspaper.
"I am sure there are many professionals in India who can help Harbhajan in those areas," said Webster, who has worked with the Indian team in the past.
