6 memorable ODI encounters between India and England

#3 World Cup match at Durban, 2003

Ashish Nehra produced one of the finest display of seam bowling in the match

This World Cup match is remembered for two reasons. The first one being Tendulkar's pull shot for six off Andrew Caddick's bowling and the second one being an excellent display of seam bowling by Ashish Nehra. On a bouncy Durban pitch, India won the toss and elected to bat first. With the help of some handy contributions from Sachin, Dravid and Yuvraj, India managed to score 250 runs in the allotted 50 overs.

England barely managed to compete as they lost six wickets before reaching 100 runs mark and eventually lost the match by 82 runs margin. The wrecker in chief, Ashish Nehra produced one of the finest display of seam bowling in a cricket world cup match, returning with figures of 6/23.

With this win, India gained momentum in the tournament which was stalled in the finals.
