As Gujarat Titans lifted the title in their debut season in IPL 2022 after defeating Rajasthan Royals by seven wickets and 11 balls to spare at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

Sachin Tendulkar observed the performance of the team (GT) skipper Hardik Pandya and finally declared his T20 squad and mentioned Hardik's name as the skipper of his squad.

The Master Blaster picked Jos Buttler and Shikhar Dhawan as his openers while KL Rahul will come at no.3. The middle and lower-order will be handled by Hardik Pandya, David Miller, Liam Livingstone and Dinesh Karthik.

The main bowling lineup in Tendulkar's XI will be Rashid Khan, Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah and Yuzvendra Chahal.

Tendulkar said: "For me, Hardik was the standout captain this season as he was very clear in his mind. He was pro-active, it happens a lot of time that a captain places a fielder at the boundary after a four has been scored. I always say, 'don't regret, celebrate'. If you are able to celebrate, that means that the captain is able to outsmart the opposition and that is what we saw with Hardik's captaincy. That's why I will keep Hardik as the captain."
