The incident had happened in 2002 during the final of Natwest Trophy between India and England at the Lord’s stadium.
England team had batted first and scored 325 runs for five wickets in their allotted fifty overs. The target of more than 300 runs at the time was considered impossible chase.
Following the target, then skipper Sourav Ganguly and Sehwag gave a good start to India but soon Ganguly was sent back to the pavilion.
However, later Mohammed Kaif and legendary all-rounder Yuvraj Singh had guided India in winning the trophy.
Hussain was so frustrated with this fact that he called Kaif a bus driver when they were on the ground.
