#10 Ganguly single-handedly wins the Sahara Cup vs Pakistan
In an attempt to bring the two neighbouring countries of India and Pakistan together after some strained relationships even on the cricket field, a 5-match bilateral series called the Sahara Friendship Cup was organised at a neutral venue in Canada. The first series played in the year 1997 was won by India by a convincing margin of 4-1, but it was more Sourav Ganguly vs Pakistan rather than India vs Pakistan going by the turn of events that occurred.
Ganguly was in top form with both bat and ball and put up some great all-round shows in almost all 5 matches, in 4 of which he received the Man of the Match award. So there are no points for guessing who the Man of the Series was.
