Hardik Pandya had made his IPL debut in 2015. In his debut IPL game against Royal Challengers Bangalore, the Mumbai Indians all-rounder had walloped a six off just the second delivery he faced. After donning the Mumbai Indians in seven seasons, Pandya joined Gujarat Titans ahead of the IPL 2022 edition. He led the Gujarat Titans side in their maiden IPL season and Pandya could not have asked for a better start to his stint as the captain of a franchise. Gujarat Titans, under Pandya’s able leadership, were crowned IPL champions last year.
