It was the second time that Gujarat had made the final of the prestigious domestic tournament and first in 66 years. They have shown gradual improvement as a team, having won the 50-over Vijay Hazare Trophy last season and T20 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in the preceding year.
Pint-sized Patel showed why his 168 First-Class matches couldn't have been taken lightly. More so because his 90 in the first innings was the reason Gujarat got a 100-run lead.&nbsp;The oldest member of the Gujarat team, he's just seven weeks short of his 32nd birthday, scored his 25th century in first-class cricket and it was all guts.
