For all those like me who were young in 1975, the World Cup was a novelty.India had played not more than two ODIs, which in any case was a new concept at international level.There had been one day tournaments in three formats in England but international One Day matches were few and far between.Amidst this the Prudential Cup was introduced.
The Prudential Cup was new even to aficionados who followed test matches around the World.One such introduced me to the World Cup.And India vs England was a classical match which should have been an advertisement for its non popularity.SUNIL Gavaskar remained 36 not out in 60 overs.We were not even sure whether this was good or bad.
