Gujarat Titans have come out triumphant in their first-ever IPL season. The team selection was doubted post-Auction. However, great coaches, a hard-working squad, and a new captain stunned everyone as the side was on the winning side. Hardik Pandya stunned everyone with his brilliant tactical abilities which were at first doubted. Another GT member is being widely hailed after the IPL victory. It is none other than the former India great Ashish Nehra. He is known for keeping things simple. Moreover, no GT member could stop talking about the amazing character Nehra is. In addition, Ashish Nehra has become the first Indian head coach to win an IPL Trophy.
Ashish Nehra becomes first Indian head coach to win the IPL
So far, in IPL history, none of the Title winning coaches have been Indian. However, Gujarat Titans’ head coach and former Indian pacer Ashish Nehra broke the 14-year-old record. For the first time in 15 years of IPL, Nehra has become the first Indian to win the IPL as a head coach. Everyone is aware of Nehra’s hilariously cool personality. Indian cricketers have only one name on their mouths when they are asked about the funniest cricketer. His positive attitude has immensely helped GT in their debut season. We’ve heard him say ‘Nothing, eat well, and rest well’ in a post-match meeting.
Fleming has won 4, Jayawardene 3, and Trevor Bayliss has won 2 Trophies as the Head coach. In addition, Tom Moody, Ricky Ponting, John Wright, Darren Lehmann, and Shane Warne have won a Trophy each. Now, Ashish Nehra is the recent and the only Indian addition to the list.
