There was a lot of fun that we had as a team during that campaign. With characters like Sandeep Patil and Kirti Azad, there was a lot of leg-pulling, fooling around, which meant that the team atmosphere was relaxed. I would give credit to our seniors in that team — Sunil (Gavaskar), (Syed) Kirmani, Dilip Vengsarkar and Mohinder Amarnath — for not making the final into too big an occasion. It really helped reduce the pressure on us youngsters. They didn’t allow that final to become a big game.
