Among notable matches that etched Vivek into cricketing folklore was the epic clash against their fiercest rivals in the tri-nation series final. Vivek’s counter-attacking innings, followed by a spell that dismantled a robust batting line-up, remains a focal point of his career. The intensity of this rivalry often brings out his best, a fact that delights fans and commentators alike.
