"To Replace Hardik Pandya...": GT Coach Ashish Nehra Breaks Silence On 'Difficult' Exit Of Star

Gujarat Titans head coach Ashish Nehra admitted that it will be tough to replace a multi-faceted player like Hardik Pandya but banked on Shubman Gill to shoulder the responsibility of leading the side in next year's IPL.

"To replace a player like Hardik Pandya is difficult considering his talent and experience. We have seen how he (Gill) has shaped up in the past three-four years. He is 24-25 years of age but he has a good head on his shoulders," Nehra said in a virtual post-auction press meet on Tuesday night.

"It was obviously a pretty special night for us as a family, sitting here with my wife watching the whole auction," Mitchell said, according to local media. "To see your name come up and then to go through that whole experience is definitely something that will stick with us for the rest of our lives." Mitchell became the second-most expensive Black Caps ever purchased in the 15-year history of the IPL, level with Kane Williamson and behind only Kyle Jamieson, who was picked up by Royal Challengers Bangalore for Rs 15 crore in 2021.
