Top 5 Indian victories over Australia in the 21st century

#4 India vs Australia, Champions Trophy 2000 quarterfinal

Yuvraj hits the ball for a boundary in his knock of 84

The Sourav Ganguly-led Indian side faced the world champions in the quarterfinal of the second edition of Champions Trophy tournament. After the entire match-fixing saga, this was India's first major tournament.

Beating Australia in the knockout stage of any tournament is never an easy task, and India were going into the Champions Trophy with very little momentum. But defying all odds, the team did the impossible.

What makes the match more special is that it gave India the two superstars who would lead the next generation of Indian cricket i.e. Zaheer Khan and Yuvraj Singh. The latter was adjudged the Man of the Match for his brilliant 84 in his first ever ODI innings.
