It was the fourth match of the series between India and Pakistan in Canada. Batting first, India managed to score only 182 runs in their 50 overs. Barring Robin Singh, other Indian batters batted extremely slowly in Toronto. The pitch was a two-paced one, which came into the picture, particularly in the second innings. Pakistan struggled in chasing the target, which did not seem tough on paper.

Though Saeed Anwar and Shahid Afridi started well, Ganguly wreaked havoc in the middle overs. The Pakistan batters fell like a pack of cards, as Ganguly claimed a 5-wicket haul and cleaned up the middle order. Ganguly dismissed the likes of Ijaz Ahmed, Saleem Malik, Hasan Raza, Moin Khan, and Aaqib Javed. In the process, Ganguly registered his career-best figures of 5/16 and helped India to win the match.
