IPL 2022: We just wanted to be ruthless, says skipper Hardik Pandya after Gujarat beat Lucknow
Gujarat Titans' (GT) skipper Hardik Pandya on Tuesday said his side's plan to be ruthless on the field and relax post game paid rich dividends as they beat Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) by 62 runs to become the first team to qualify for the IPL playoffs here. Newcomers GT ensured their place in the last-four with 18 points from 12 games, while LSG are a close second with 16 points from 12 matches and need a win to secure their play-off berth. "Really, really proud of the boys. It is a great effort to qualify before the 14th game in this league. We just wanted to be ruthless today, and relax post game," Hardik said at the post-match presentation ceremony.
