This response is more than five years too late, I have started reading this blog ever since I bought a copy of MIHYAP. Some incidents that I guess should have been included, even if it meant increasing the size of the list to fifteen or twenty.

1. Anil Kumble’s 10 wickets in Delhi 1999.
2. Saeed Anwar’s 194 in Chennai 1997.
3. Pakistan 87 all out chasing India’s 125 in Sharjah 1984.
4. Sadiq Mohammed asking for a helmet in Faisalabad 1978 (First time an Indian was bowling bouncers, Kapil Dev had arrived).
5. Salim Malik’s 72 not out in 35 balls in Kolkata 1987. Pakistan needed 78 in last seven overs, and they won.
6. Sourav Ganguly’s four consecutive Man of the Match awards in Sahara Cup 1997.
7. Virender Sehwag’s 309 in Multan 2004.
8. Aaquib Javed’s hattrick in Sharjah 1991.

Great piece GB…. but what about the 96 world cup, when Aamir Sohail hit Venkatesh Prasad for a four and then came up to him and said something pointing to mid on. He was probably saying that he’ll hit the next ball there, and then the umpire has a word with Venky, he is livid, and then on the next delivery he runs in all guns blazing and uproots Sohail’s off stump which cartwheels halfway to the keeper, after which all the supressed emotion comes out(I did’nt know Venky had a temper), the stands erupt,Pure Magic.Certainly my favourite cricketing moment of all time (barring Yuvi’s sixes)

I guess two more things could complete it even in the record breaking sense.
Saeed Anwar – 194 at Chepauk
Anil Kumble – 10 wickets at Feroz Shah Kotla
