Ganguly said that the Indians did not feel any extra pressure in the final. "Pressure is part and parcel in international cricket. We are used to it."

The former Indian skipper who put up a good show in the Test and one-day series said that back-to-back tours of Ireland and England did not pose any problem for the Indians. "This is how international cricket schedule is. And we are familiar with it."
