One of the highlights of India's cricketing history was when the team registered a famous win over England in the Natwest Series final in 2002. Chasing 326, India looked dead and buried when they were reduced to 146/5 after the openers Sourav Ganguly and Virender Sehwag helped the Men in Blue off to a superb start. But then the onus was on the youngsters Yuvraj Singh and Mohammed Kaif who formed an epic partnership to bail India out of trouble and get back into the match. While Yuvi departed after having put the chase back on track, Kaif made sure he finished the job and came in an innings which went on to define his cricketing career. It was then that then skipper Ganguly kicked off his, now part of folklore, over the top, animated and wild celebration at the Lord's balcony, taking off and waving his shirt to give it back to England whose Andrew Flintoff had done a similar gesture earlier at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
