Captain grabbed 6 for 85 in the second innings, as hosts Bengal suffered a batting collapse of 5 for 11 on fourth morning
Bengal erase most of Saurashtra's 230-run first-innings lead on day three at Eden Gardens
Four half-centuries in Saurashtra's innings, thus far, have put Bengal on the back foot
Shahbaz Ahmed and Abishek Porel offered brief resistance with fifties before Bengal were bowled out for 174
Captain also says "this decade and era belongs to Saurashtra" following their second title in three seasons
They found contributors from everywhere to claim a second Ranji Trophy crown
Captain says India team management was supportive of his decision to leave the Test squad and play the Ranji final
They are far from perfect, but have put together a solid body of work over the past few seasons
