IPL 2022: Former Team India Cricketer picks two franchises that have “Lit Up” the tournament

Gujarat Titians (GT), led by all-rounder Hardik Pandya, have taken the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 by storm. In their debut season, GT are at the top of the IPL 2022 Points Table with five wins from six games. Their impressive beginning has already got everyone’s eyes on them as the franchise has got all the boxes ticking so far in the season. With former multiple IPL champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI) struggling with their game, teams like GT and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) have cruised along quite nicely in the initial phase of the competition.

Observing the trend, former India cricketer Aakash Chopra picked two teams who, he feels, have “lit up this IPL 2022”, and there weren’t any surprises as Chopra revealed his his two choices – GT and SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH), through a Tweet.

Winning without Hardik. Winning without Gill scoring a single run. This Gujarat Team is doing things that I never thought were possible with their resources. Two teams—GT and SRH have lit up this #IPL2022
