Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh also took to Twitter to share memories from the famous victory and wrote, “What a win this was”. During the chase, Harbhajan Singh scored 15 runs which proved to be vital for India in the chase. However, he could not be there to end the match with Mohammad Kaif as Andrew Flintoff cleaned him up.

The highlight of India’s chase was the partnership between Yuvraj Singh and Mohammad Kaif for the sixth wicket. Yuvraj and Kaif stitched a partnership of 121 runs which helped India fight back in the match. Yuvraj Singh scored 69 from 63 balls and helped India reach closer to victory.

After Yuvraj’s dismissal, it looked difficult for the Indians to cross the 325-run mark as Mohammad Kaif was running out of partners. Mohammad Kaif held his nerve and got support from the Indian bowlers who chipped in with valuable contributions. Zaheer Khan was on strike in the final over of the match and hit the winning runs for India.
