An epic clash which is still remembered
An epic clash which is still remembered

This is one of the most historic ODIs in cricket. In the finals of the 2002 NatWest series, England batted first and scored a mammoth 325. England captain Nasser Hussain and opener Marcus Trescothick both scored centuries. The score looked insurmountable and many pundits wrote the young Indian team off.

India was stuttering at one stage, having lost half their side for less than 150 runs. Then came the young pair of Yuvraj and Mohammad Kaif who joined hands together to notch up a massive partnership of 121, with Yuvraj scoring 69 and Kaif scoring 87 not out to register an emphatic win.

Many cricketing fans would remember this match for Sourav Ganguly's epic celebration when he waived his shirt off at the Lord's balcony. This classic is still one of India's finest victories in ODIs.
