Five-time IPL winner Hardik Pandya on Sunday said his latest triumph, while leading first-timers Gujarat Titans, is something the coming generations will talk about. Hardik's team capped off a dream campaign in its maiden season by lifting the Indian Premier League title with a seven-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals in the final.
Nobody gave them a chance but Gujarat Titans, bucking all pre-tournament predictions, surprised everyone by lifting the Indian Premier League title in a dream maiden season after a seven-wicket victory over Rajasthan Royals in the final here on Sunday. Gujarat's highly-rated bowling attack, led by skipper Hardik Pandya (3/17) himself, limited a formidable Rajasthan Royals batting unit to 130 for nine after losing the toss. Shubman Gill and David Miller remained unbeaten on 45 and 32, respectively, to complete an emphatic win for their team.
Gujarat Titans have reached the final of their first season in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and will look to win the title when they take on Rajasthan Royals at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday. The Titans secured Hardik Pandya, Rashid Khan and Shubman Gill as their pre-auction picks and then secured the likes of David Miller, Rahul Tewatia and Mohammed Shami at the mega auction ahead of the season. Many experts were critical of their squad, but they surprised everyone by dominating the league stage and then going on to reach the final under Pandya's captaincy.
Two leaders, who are minefields of talent in their own right, one team that has made a mockery of all betting odds and the other trying to complete a cycle that started 15 summers back, IPL final between Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals is about this and much more. When IPL started over two months back, nobody would have believed that two captains walking out for toss in the title clash will be Hardik Pandya and Sanju Samson.
Chasing a challenging 189-run target, Shubman Gill along with Matthew Wade laid a solid foundation striking a 72-run partnership for the second wicket to pave way for a seven-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals here at the Eden Gardens Stadium on Tuesday to enter the final of the IPL. The GT opener scored 35 off 21 balls hitting five fours and one six. A brilliant knock of 68 runs in 38 balls by David Miller and captain Hardik Pandya's 40 off 27 balls helped Gujarat Titans to win easily with seven wickets in hand against Rajasthan Royals. Shubman Gill and Mathew Wade scored 35 runs each.
Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals will be taking on each other in Qualifier 1 of the ongoing IPL 2022 at Eden Gardens, Kolkata on Tuesday evening and the winner would directly go through to the final set to be played in Ahmedabad on Sunday. The Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat had finished the league stage at the top of the table while Rajasthan followed closely behind at second.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 league stage games are over and the playoffs will get underway on Tuesday with Gujarat Titans squaring off against Rajasthan Royals at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata, on Tuesday. GT finished the league stage at the top spot while RR were second. Weather may play spoilsport in the Qualifier 1 and if a full match does not take place, then the winner would be decided by Super Over. If even a Super Over can't take place, then GT would go through as they were placed higher in the points table in the league stage.
Shubman Gill hit his third half-century of the season as Gujarat Titans beat Lucknow Super Giants on Tuesday to become the first team to qualify for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 play-offs. The youngster scored an unbeaten 63 off 49 deliveries to anchor the Titans' innings after skipper Hardik Pandya won the toss and elected to bat. Gill's knock helped GT reach 144/4 on a tricky pitch at the MCA Stadium in Pune. Gill was named player of the match after the Super Giants were bowled out for 82, ensuring a thumping 62-run win for his team despite what seemed like a middling total.
