When this writer asked Sunil Gavaskar before he turned 60 as to which friend he missed the most, he took no time to say it was Eknath Solkar, who died in 2005.
Solkar was missed dearly yesterday too when members of the victorious 1971 Indian teams to West Indies and England were honoured at Mumbai's Nehru Centre.
