IPL 2022 title | Coming generations will talk about Gujarat Titans’ triumph: Hardik Pandya

This is going to be a special one because we talked about creating a legacy, says the GT skipper after clinching a 7-wicket sin over Rajasthan Royals in the final.

Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya on Sunday, May 29, 2022, 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 here.

"This title is going to be a special one because we talked about creating a legacy. The coming generations will talk about it," Hardik said.

"Everyone will remember this was the team who started this journey and to win the championship first year is very special." The Gujarat Titans' triumphant skipper said he knew he was going to bat at number four for the first-timers after they got done with the mega auction ahead of IPL-15.

"When the auction finished, I knew I would have to bat at No. 4," Hardik said at the presentation ceremony.

Hardik has won four IPL titles with Mumbai Indians.

Gujarat's highly-rated bowling attack, led by skipper Hardik (3/17) himself, limited a formidable Rajasthan Royals batting unit to 130 for nine after losing the toss.
