Ganguly was simply sensational during the 2000 Champions Trophy

The Champions Trophy in Kenya was probably Saurav Ganguly's finest ICC campaign. India defeated Australia in the quarterfinal before setting up a juicy semi-final against South Africa in Nairobi. The Indian skipper led from the front as he scored an unbeaten 141 to give India a huge total to defend. The South African side had no reply for Saurav's masterclass as he got into each and every bowler put in front of him.

Opening the innings with Sachin Tendulkar, Ganguly managed to play out the entire 50 overs to help India post a daunting total of 295-6. The South African side led by Shaun Pollock didn’t put much of a fight as India won comprehensively by 95 to reach the final of ICC knockout tournament in Kenya.
