Bhogle's wit led the way as he went back and forth with each cricketer talking to them about who were the naughty ones in the team, always sneaking out for their share of fun, the disciplined players and how Srikkanth was told to hold himself from going to the washroom during one of the historic matches as a superstition so that nothing interferes with the flow which was going in India's favour. Late cricketer Yashpal Sharma, who had passed away last year was remembered by a touching video tribute from all the members of the 83 team along with members of his family. All in all, almost 40 years after their historic moment, it was an evening any Indian, regardless whether a fan of cricket or not, would have loved to be part of.
