Those who watched Indian team's masterclass at Perth last week will reminisce with great pride in the future or in other words will have a rich nostalgia to look back. This was not always the case if you grew up idolizing the fortunes of the Indian cricket team in the early 90's. At the heels of this historic win three older fans relive the nostalgic significance of India's 1991-92 tour to Australia. The conversation includes many anecdotal recollections of a very impressionable tour for three fans.
