It's a lie: Ashish Nehra's hilarious reaction to Hardik Pandya statement after Gujarat Titans win IPL 2022
India Today
Gujarat Titans' skipper Hardik Pandya and head coach Ashish Nehra had a fun interview after GT won their maiden IPL title.
Hardik Pandya was delighted after Gujarat Titans (GT) got their hands on the coveted Indian Premier League (IPL) trophy in their very first attempt. On Sunday, Hardik Pandya and Co. came up trumps after handing Rajasthan Royals (RR) a seven-wicket defeat at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
After winning the trophy, Pandya got together with head coach Ashish Nehra for a fun interview. Apart from how proud he is, the all-rounder, light-heartedly, also said that fans didn’t believe in their team to start with.
“We have hit a six in the very first year. We became the champions and can’t be prouder. People said our batting and bowling aren’t that strong, but since we won the trophy, everything is good,” Hardik was quoted as saying.
Nehra, also a former Indian cricketer, oozed pride and praised the Titans for putting in a superlative effort. After GT’s victory, Nehra became the first Indian head coach to win an IPL trophy.
“It’s a great feeling. More than winning the trophy, the most important thing was the way we played and it was very heartening to see. Under your leadership, the boys gelled very well,” Nehra told Pandya.
