Definitely Dada's, and one of India's, most iconic moment! A moment that will stay etched in Indian fans’ memories forever is the image of a bare-chested Sourav Ganguly waving his jersey on the Lord’s balcony, after India’s most memorable win of the 2000s.

The NatWest triumph changed the face of cricket in modern India, and Ganguly was the leader of the pack which was able to orchestrate it. It was a statement about India’s increasing power in world cricket.

Ganguly was at the helm, building a team of superstars that went on to achieve great heights. But it all started with the 2002 series win against England, an improbable chase of 326 at Lord’s, that made Dada a cult-hero.

The image is definitely fresh in every cricket fan's minds and will remain so for a very long time to come - such was the defiance Dada displayed on the Lord's terrace, the very same where Kapil Dev had lifted the 1983 World Cup trophy.
