Parthiv Patel and Thisara Perera held their nerves under pressure to guide Gujarat Giants to a two-wicket win over Manipal Tigers in the Legends League Cricket here.

Pant's performance in the shortest format has not been great this year while Karthik has shown that he can finish off innings in style. Former India batter Wasim Jaffer has said that he would pick Dinesh Karthik ahead of Pant in the first T20I against Australia.
