Despite losing his wicket Hardik was all smile as his elder brother completed a tough catch. Before the game, Hardik also spoke about how important this moment is for both brothers as their father would have loved to see this. “It’s an emotional day, our father would have been proud. This is something happening for the first time, so our family is proud. One Pandya will definitely win today. It’s about expressing ourselves and not worry about the result. The fear of failure might creep in, but we need to play good cricket,” said Hardik.
As mentioned above, GT have posted 227 runs in their allotted 20 overs. While Saha missed his century by 19 runs, his partner Gill got so close to a century but fell 6 runs short of the milestone. “It was pretty hot today. Thanks to Wriddhi (Saha) bhai for the start. The wicket was not easy to start with, it was a dry wicket and the odd ball was stopping. It is all about practising and knowing your game, having awareness of your game and playing according to do that. It (the hundred) was on my mind in the last over, till the fourth ball where I could not get the boundary, but we have five more games and I will get my chance,” Gill said during the mid-innings break.
