IPL 2025 mein Gujarat Titans ne ek baar phir sabit kar diya ki Ahmedabad unka fortress hai, jab unhone Mumbai Indians ko 36 runs se hara diya. Is match ke baad, Hardik Pandya ne khud maana ki unko ‘unke hi tareeke se’ haraya gaya — aur is baar mastermind the Shubman Gill aur GT ke bowlers.
March 29 ko Narendra Modi Stadium mein khele gaye is match mein, GT ne 196/8 ka solid target set kiya. Hardik ne bowling mein ache figures diye — 2/29 — lekin batting aur fielding MI ki wahi purani kahani likh gaye. Suryakumar Yadav ne 28-ball 48 banakar kuch resistance dikhayi, lekin poori team 160/6 tak hi pahuch payi. Is defeat ke saath MI ka IPL 2025 mein winless streak continue raha.
“Tough to put (down where it went wrong). There were errors, we were not quite professional in the field – that cost us maybe 20-25 runs. They (the GT openers) did the right stuff in the powerplay, they did not play high-risk shots, they got enough runs (playing that way) and that put us on the back foot… I was just thinking I bowled way too many balls, they saw it was gripping and those were the toughest balls to score off. They did the same to me (what I did as a bowler),”
– Hardik Pandya, post-match presentation
Pandya ne fielding lapses ko major concern bataya aur kaha ki unki team ko match jitne ke liye aur zyada professional banne ki zarurat hai. Unhone GT ke powerplay approach ko smart strategy bataya jahan unhone bina risk liye scoreboard chadhaya.
MI ke liye ye season tough ja raha hai. Pehla match unhone Chennai Super Kings ke against 4 wickets se hara tha, aur ab GT ke against dusri haani mil gayi. Dusri taraf, GT ne apni pehli haani (Punjab Kings ke against) ke baad strong comeback kiya.
Next Matches:
- MI vs KKR – March 31
- GT vs RCB – April 2
Ab dekhna hoga kya Hardik Pandya ki team bounce back kar paati hai ya pressure aur badhega!
