121 runs for the sixth wicket, Natwest Trophy Final, Lord's, 13 July
This was among the greatest comebacks in one-day cricket, and perhaps the most emotionally charged one of them all. India were 143 for 5, chasing 326, poised to lose their 10th straight one-day final. Sehwag, Ganguly, Tendulkar, Dravid were all gone. Mohammad Kaif and Yuvraj Singh, stalwarts of the India under-19 World Cup-lifting team, proved that they were still winners. Calmly they set about repairing damage till their force gathered a momentum that was no longer possible to contain. Kaif ended not out on 87 from 75 balls, Yuvraj got 69 from 63. To a match that had already been supplied with a passionate outburst by a captain - Nasser Hussain gesturing virulently at the media box upon reaching 100 - Sourav Ganguly provided a second, whirling his t-shirt above his head in an act of retaliation against Andrew Flintoff's a few months earlier. Ganguly had felt it in the blood, like all of India. Rahul Bhattacharya
