5 forgotten victories of India under Mohammad Azharuddin's captaincy

#4 Against England in Mumbai (1993 Test series)

Azharuddin remains the only Indian captain to whitewash England in both Test and ODI series

Dubbed 'The Bombay Brownwash', the third Test between India and England assumed plenty of significance. An emphatic innings victory at the Wankhede Stadium resulted in the first ever instance of India clean-sweeping their opponent in a Test series of at least three matches.

After sealing the series with an innings win in Chennai, India were looking to heap further humiliation on England when the final Test began in Bombay. The visitors failed to make use of the advantage of winning the toss on a batting-friendly surface. Were it not for Graeme Hick's master-class, their total would have been much lower.

Vinod Kambli masterminded India's response with a breathtaking double century. Useful contributions right throughout the batting lineup helped the hosts put up a commanding score on the board. Once seamer Manoj Prabhakar sliced open the top-order with a sizzling new-ball spell, the spinners got to work. Anil Kumble stymied the semblance of resistance from the experienced middle-order. India duly completed an innings triumph to wrap up the series by a 3-0 margin.

Brief Scores: England - 347 (Graeme Hick 178, Kapil Dev 3/35, Anil Kumble 3/95) & 229 (Robin Smith 62, Mike Gatting 61, Anil Kumble 4/70, Manoj Prabhakar 3/28); India - 591 (Vinod Kambli 224, Navjot Singh Sidhu 79, Phil Tufnell 4/142)

Result - India won by an innings & 15 runs
