Super Striker of the Season – Jos Buttler Opener Gill remained unbeaten on 45, sealing Gujarat’s victory with a six and with 11 balls to spare. IPL 2022 Award Winners: Debutants Gujarat Titans were crowned the Indian Premier League (IPL) champions on Sunday after they beat Rajasthan Royals by seven wickets in the final in Ahmedabad. Opting to bat first, 2008 champions Rajasthan never got going and posted a below-par 130-9 with Jos Buttler, this IPL’s leading scorer, top scoring for them with a rather subdued 39.

Gujarat Titans' players and coaches react to their IPL 2022 triumph.

I wanted to be there [batting] till the end this time and that was the talk with coaches and we came over the line." The franchise showed faith in David, me and Hardik. Now we've won, so nothing left to say." Everyone feels welcome and you can see the performances." "[Titans behind the scenes:] A lot of the time, we won the game, but we always spoke about what are the things we missed out on and how we can do better. first year [for us in the IPL] to win the championship is very special." I have been in this kind of situation before, so for my team, I thought that it's the best position [No. 4] for me to bat, so that all the other batsmen can come and express themselves. "[On the final:] We adjusted ourselves very quickly with the wicket. "[On team combination:] Me and Ashu pa [Ashish Nehra] are similar in terms of wanting to play five proper bowlers, who can win you matches all day. this is for the generation to come, everyone will remember that this was the team who started this journey and… Most of the time, I have seen in T20 cricket, it's a batters' game but bowlers win you games." "Me and Ashu pa [Ashish Nehra] are similar in terms of wanting to play five proper bowlers, who can win you matches all day... So, for me it was all about sticking to the right lengths and asking the batters to play a good shot rather than me trying something and giving a boundary.

Rajasthan Royals batted first and were restricted to 130 for nine and Gujarat chased it down, scoring 133, but Jos Buttler finished as the IPL's top scorer.

“Batting comes first to me, it’s been always close to my heart,” player-of-the-match Pandya said after hitting three boundaries and a six in his knock at No 4. But Gujarat’s depth in the middle-order batting — the team topped the table with 20 points from 10 wins during the league stage — saw them home. We believe quality bowlers win you the tournament, so we invested in them ... but there is a lot to learn.” Pandya had Shimron Hetmyer (11) caught off his own bowling in the last ball of a terrific four-over spell. Jos Buttler made only 39 off 35 balls but still finished as the tournament’s top scorer with 863 runs, and Samson scored 14. Pandya grabbed three for17 with impeccable medium-fast bowling to restrict Rajasthan to 130 for nine after Sanju Samson won the toss and chose to bat.

Cricket News: Hardik Pandya on Sunday said his latest triumph, while leading first-timers Gujarat Titans, is something the coming generations will talk ...

All the youngsters, seniors played well as a team, I am proud of my team," Samson said. "In good teams you have a lot of trust in everyone. Hardik has enjoyed a splendid run in his fresh IPL season with his home franchise. My goals are to play my role for the team and try and react on the day regarding what the game is asking me to do," Buttler said. "For me my team is the most important. Asked about his bowling, he said, "Wanted to show at the right time what I've worked hard for. The two batsmen hugged and, as the fireworks erupted, the Gujarat players came running on to the pitch to celebrate. (BCCI/IPL/PTI Photo)

Pandya then made 34 with the bat before Shubman Gill (45*) and David Miller (32*) steered the team home in 18.1 overs to bring the house down at the 132,000 capacity stadium. (BCCI/IPL/PTI Photo)

Questions around his fitness, his bowling, his captaincy, his new No. 4 spot, have all been answered and how.

The next ball was Hardik's last of the day, and it was back to basics: into the pitch, while angling the ball across the left-hand batter. He had performed a steadying role at No. 4 all through the season; all that remained was to do it one last time. Before this season, he hadn't had too many opportunities to begin a T20 innings with more than 10 overs remaining, but at Titans, he has adopted that role out of necessity and relished it. That sequence included a pair of offcutters that gripped and beat the outside edge, and a 143kph bouncer that left Padikkal late on a hook. A bit of extra bounce, possibly, and a bit of nibble off the seam - neither in any way pronounced - caused him to edge behind. One ball later, Hardik bowled his one full ball of the evening, and Hetmyer opened his bat face to steer it between wicketkeeper and short third man. Starting the 15th over having given away only seven runs in his first three, Hardik suffered his only dose of punishment on the day. By then, Hardik had tormented Devdutt Padikkal as well, bowling seven balls to the left-hand batter and conceding only a leg bye. "[At the] right time, I wanted to show what I have worked hard for, and today was the day, from my bowling point of view, I saved the best for the best [stage]," Hardik said during the post-match presentation. The ball kicked up awkwardly, and Samson skewed it to backward point. And oh, Hardik had never captained a team at senior level; how would he lead this group of players who had never played with each other before? He had been appointed captain of a new IPL franchise, Gujarat Titans, and it was still not known what role he would play for them.

- When Shubman Gill pulled Obed McCoy for a huge six over long leg to lead GT to a 7-wicket victory over Rajasthan Royals at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Ashish Nehra etched his name on the history books. He's a high-profile player in India but he's incredibly humble, wanting to learn as a leader and engage with his players which I think is really, really important. Nehra was well-supported by former South Africa opener Gary Kirsten, who was a part of the GT support staff as a mentor. I’ve loved working with Ashish (Nehra), he’s really strong tactically - trying to put a gameplan together on the fly is not easy," told the IPL host broadcaster. If Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya was their hero on the field, off the field it was the support staff led by former India pacer Ashish Nehra that played a crucial role in GT winning the IPL title in their first attempt. The former left-arm pacer became the first Indian head coach to win the IPL. In all the previous 14 editions of the Indian Premier League, the title-winning side had a foreign head coach but Nehra broke the pattern with GT this year.

"I don't think I'll be pushing on too far after that at international level. "I'm really comfortable in all positions, I've played long enough now to know what to do in most scenarios and it's something I'll try and master and get better at and not let a position dictate really how I play too much." "It's something I'm trying to get better and better at, I want to be someone who can be multi-positioned, maybe (if there's) a player they don't want to send in during the powerplay they can use me at international level and then slide back and bat seven later in the innings. "I've got a young family as well, I like being at home a little bit more as well and that opportunity to do both is something that still interests me. "I really love the camaraderie of domestic cricket and playing with the same players over a longer period of time and striving for something collectively," Wade told cricket.com.au. "I'll basically just drop my kit off then head back over to Sri Lanka, come back (home) for about a month for some time off, play (England's) Hundred for Birmingham and then seven or eight T20Is between now and the World Cup," he said.
