Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya on Friday has said that he relishes the extra responsibilities captaincy brings while leading GT to their third consecutive win in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. Rahul Tewatia hit a couple of sixes off the final two deliveries after the talented youngster Shubman Gill’s magnificent 96 off just 59 balls helped them a dramatic six-wicket win over Punjab Kings.

However, Hardik has been doing exceptionally well as a captain of Gujarat Titans and they are now the only unbeaten side in the league. Moreover, they are placed at second in the points table after the six-wicket win. Meanwhile, Hardik has been playing at No.4 for the Gujarat franchise, contrary to No.5 or 6, and also returned to bowling his full quota of four overs as well.

“I am enjoying captaincy. As a cricketer, I always wanted responsibility in my life. Responsibilities have made me a better cricketer because you improve only when you face challenges,” Hardik Pandya said in the post-match press conference.

“I have been on both sides. I have won also, lost also. I am cool and composed because I want to be neutral whether it’s a loss or a win. Our team’s motto is also the same. We win or lose, the atmosphere of the dressing room should be the same,” Hardik further added.

“We celebrate our losses as well, because that is also something very important as a team as it gives us more value when we win,” Hardik Pandya shared.

Meanwhile, he was impressed with youngster Shubman Gill, who scored a blitzy 96 and all-rounder Rahul Tewatia, who smashed two sixes in the final two deliveries to help the Titans register a thrilling win.

“Gill is telling everybody that he is there. A lot of credit goes to Sai (Sudarshan) as well for that partnership. It kept us in the game. Hats off to Tewatia. It is difficult to go out there and hit, and to do it under this pressure is great,” he said at the post-match presentation.
