Mohammad Kaif is arguably one of the best fielders India has ever seen on the cricket field. He made his international debut at a time when India's fielding was not up there with the best in the world but changed its dynamics with his athleticism. He was agile and hardly made fielding errors. Plucking balls out of thin air was a cakewalk for him. Mohammad Kaif played 13 Tests and 125 ODIs, in which he amassed 624 and 2,753 runs respectively, with 3 centuries and 20 half-centuries. He will mostly be known for the memorable knock he played at the Lord’s versus England.

He called it quits from all forms of cricket on July 13, 2018. After he bid adieu to the sport, Sachin Tendulkar posted a message for him on social media. Sachin Tendulkar said he chose the best day for quitting cricket. Tendulkar also reminisced the knock Kaif played at the Home of Cricket, Lord's back in 2002. The batting maestro had taken to Twitter and extended his wishes to Mohammad Kaif.
