"It's all about us, it's not about any single player. It's not about me as a coach, it's not about Gill as a captain. Rather, it's about us as a team. I think if we play to our potential, we can come out winners in the tournament," AIFF quoted Pinto as saying.

We understand that a moment of brilliance can finish proceedings in the final, and hence, would like to focus on our decision making."
