It was the 25th of June, the year was 1983 and India's arguably most famous sporting achievement was made possible by the mystical all-rounder, Kapil Dev. His exploits ranged from scoring 175 in a world cup league match to save India the blushes by hitting 4 consecutive sixes against England at Lord's in 1990 to prevent a follow-on.

Lord's does have quite a few special moments for the Indian Cricket but none more so than lifting the cricket world cup as minnows and then becoming world beaters. In fact, Indian side also went on to win the 1986 tour to England 2-0 in 3 test match series with Kapil Dev as the captain.

He has a lone century to go with 5 50+ scores in England. He played a knock of 110 runs which came at Kennington Oval in the 1990 tour of England.
