6 memorable ODI encounters between India and England

#1 Natwest Trophy Final at Lords, 2002

One of India's greatest victories in ODI cricket

England won the toss and elected to bat first. Centuries from Marcus Trescothick and Nasir Hussain propelled the hosts to 325/5 in their allotted 50 overs. In reply, Ganguly looked in ominous touch from the onset and along with Sehwag gave India an excellent start with the scorecard reading 106/0 in 14.3 overs. At this juncture, Ganguly gifted his wicket away and in no time, India were reeling at 5/146. That is when India's youngest batting sensations Yuvraj Singh and Mohammad Kaif joined hands together and forged a partnership of 121 runs. When Yuvraj was out for 69, the scorecard read 267/6 and India needed another 59 runs in 8.2 overs. Mohammad Kaif held his nerve and took India close to the finish line where taking the advantage of an overthrow, Zaheer Khan took the final two runs and helped India win the match.

The match is remembered for the sight of Sourav Ganguly waving off his jersey in Lord's balcony after winning the finals.

Kaif kept his cool to finish off the match
