India's historic win at the Twenty20 World Cup had not imposed any pressure on the team which has worked out a strategy to take on the Aussies to fight "fire with fire" in the coming ODI series, Robin Uthappa, part of the victorious team, said today.

"The pressure is not on us. We have done exceedingly well," he told the media in Bangalore during the launch of Neo Sports Video on Demand and Live Streaming Service.

He said the team was "raring to go" against the Aussies in the one-day series commencing from September 29.

"We have worked out a strategy to take on the Aussies. We will fight fire with fire," he said.

To a question that he appeared to struggle towards the latter half of the 20-20 tournament, Uthappa said: "No, I don't think I was struggling. I was trying my best to contribute to the game in any possible way I could."

India's ace seamer Zaheer Khan, who missed the Twenty20 World Cup due to an injury, said: "The break was critical for me. The break has gone on well. I have done a lot of work during the break. I am looking forward to the coming series. It is important to start the series on a good note."
