IPL 2022: Hardiks captaincy has been a big part of our success, says Vikram Solanki #IndiaNEWS #Cricket
Kolkata, May 23 | In the newbies Gujarat Titans impressive run in the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL), the captaincy skills of Hardik Pandya has been a vital cog in the wheel, speaking to the bowlers and having good communication with everyone in the team.
Hence, it wasnt surprising that on the eve of Qualifier 1 match against Rajasthan Royals at the Eden Gardens, Vikram Solanki, Gujarats director of cricket, acknowledged that Pandyas captaincy and involvement in the game has played a huge part in the success of the side in the tournament.
He has grown as a leader. He has taken to the captaincy very well. He has been very giving of his time and has really sort of involved. That is what exactly is paying off. He is having conversations with each and every bowler. Of course, someone like a Shami needs no guidance. But it is always useful to have a connection or understanding of what they are planning to do, said Solanki in the pre-match virtual press conference.
Hardiks display of captaincy is actually interacting with the bowler, which is just quick communication playing out and making sure that our plans are in place and everybody is on same sort of page. What I will add again is to reiterate the fact that Hardiks captaincy has been a big part of our success. Hes absolutely been involved in every aspect of our campaign and long may he continue to do so, added Solanki, a former England batter.
In the form of Shubman Gill and Wriddhiman Saha, Gujarat have found a dependable opening pair though the latter has been the aggressor of late in power-play. Solanki quashed suggestions that the opening pair of Gill, in particular, and Saha are a weak point for the side, citing the formers 63 not out off 49 balls and carried his bat through the innings on a tough Pune pitch against Lucknow Super Giants.
I would disagree with it because the partnership created by Shubman and Wridhhi has been a very good one for us. What you are saying about Shubmans performance, it is incorrect according to me. Shubman has made so many match-winning contributions on his own abilities. For example, you can see the match against LSG, the way he handled his knock and controlled the whole innings, he gave us a chance to put up a defendable score, and then we were able to win the match.
I am in total disagreement with your assessment. As far as opening partnership is concerned, at the moment, Wriddhi (Wriddhiman Saha) and Shubman are an ideal combination. They compliment each other in their style of play and having Wriddhi around Shubman works very well because they communicate and have a good understanding, which works well for our opening partnership.
In three out of Gujarats four losses in the league stage, top-order collapses of the side stood out as a common thread.
