There are certain cricket matches that stay in your memory for eternity. 15 years ago... on this day, Test cricket witnessed a match that many reckon is the greatest ever. The historic 2001 Eden Garden Test between India and Australia will always be cherished for VVS Laxman's heroic 281, Harbhajan's hat-trick, the 376-run partnership between Laxman and Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar's crucial bowling spell in the second innings, where he took three important wickets. After winning the toss and opting to bat, Australia posted a competitive 445 runs on the board. The only cheer for India was that Harbhajan Singh became the first Indian bowler to take a hat-trick in Test cricket.
