9. Murali Kartik vs Australia
A left-arm spinner straight from the classical mould, Murali Kartik had long been on the fringes of the national team without sealing a regular spot on the squad. He has a high arm action straight from the off spinner's textbook, and possesses several weapons in his armoury.
But he hasn't always had the breaks and was always less preferred to Anil Kumble and Harbhajan Singh for most of his career. However, 17th Oct, 2007 is a day that Kartik would remember for a long time. His remarkable figures of 6-27 in 10 overs against a legendary Australian batting lineup ensures him a place on this list.
