"When you go on to the field, you do not go there to make friends but you are there to get results in your team's favour. You have to be aggressive on the field. That is how we have won matches and now we are in the final and not to just compete," the aggressive Delhi lad told the mediapersons during the pre-match conference, here today.
Asked about his aggressive nature, the southpaw says that it works for him.
"If I have to be aggressive on the field, I have to grab that energy. The other thing is that the 11 people make a successful captain. So, I have undermined my role as a captain. I always believe individuals should contribute to the team's cause. They are bound perform and they are picked to contribute."
Beating Chennai Super Kings in their own backyard is an onerous task and Gambhir believes that his boys are up for the challenge.
"No doubt that they are playing in their own backyard. They are two-time winners and they know how to play in the final. I always believed that in a big game like, it's a 50-50 case at the start. We have to be on our toes. We need to give more than hundred percent tomorrow.
"I think we play very good cricket and there is lot of quality attached to our game. Not only this year but people were talking about our team last year too and just one bad game and we finished fourth. Hopefully, we can play some good cricket and see where the result goes."
