Bengaluru: A maiden century and a maiden title, Parthiv Patel’s mojo in Gujarat’s triumphant run in the Vijay Hazare Trophy showcased an emergence of talented cricketers on Monday. Under the flood lights of the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Gujarat humbled Delhi in scintillating fashion to take home their first Vijay Hazare silverware after four years.
“The way we won the semifinals against probably a bigger and better side than what Delhi is,” Parthiv said. “We have just focussed on how we play our cricket and focussed on doing the right things at the right point of time,” said Parthiv after scoring his first List A hundred. “Couldn’t have been a better time than this for a maiden hundred,” he said. “Winning the championship for the state is something special.”
