Gujarat Titans (GT) captain Hardik Pandya has named Rashid Khan as his most trusted player in the team’s camp. GT secured their spot in the IPL 2023 finals with a convincing 62-run victory against the Mumbai Indians (MI).
Shubman Gill’s third century of the season knocked MI out of the tournament, making him the highest run scorer of the season with 851 runs in 16 matches.
Despite Gill’s impressive performance, Pandya singled out Rashid Khan as his go-to man in challenging situations.
In the Qualifier 2 match at the Narendra Modi Stadium, GT emerged triumphant, with Gill’s exceptional knock of 129 runs and Rashid Khan’s spin bowling playing key roles.
Rashid took crucial wickets, including Tilak Verma and Tim David, to maintain GT’s control over the game. Pandya expressed his trust in Rashid, stating that he relied on him during tough moments.
Pandya also commended Gill for his outstanding batting display, considering it as one of the finest innings. The defending champions, Gujarat Titans, will face the Chennai Super Kings in the IPL 2023 finals at the Narendra Modi Stadium on May 28.
