India's best ODI XI under Sourav Ganguly

6. Mohammad Kaif

Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif hits a ba

Mohammad Kaif was a dependable middle-order batsman, whose calm temperament helped him soak the pressure in tight games and help India cross the finishing line. Kaif was a busy stroke maker who pierced the gaps to perfection and ran hard between the wickets.

Kaif along with Yuvraj produced some invaluable partnerships to win India some nerve-racking encounters. The supremely fit and extremely agile, Kaif, was an exceptional fielder who prowled like a tiger in the covers and point region. A great team man, Kaif earned the respect of his team-mates for his commitment towards playing the game.
