Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendrabhai Patel hosted the newly crowned Indian Premier League champions and felicitated them.

'Got a chance to interact with players of IPL 2022 winners Gujarat Titans. They presented me a bat with signatures of all squad members. The proceeds from it will be used in the education of the daughters of the state. Congratulations to all the players,' the chief minister tweeted.

In Sunday's final, the Titans defeated inaugural IPL winners Rajasthan Royals by seven wickets to cap off a dream season to become the first team, since the Royals themselves in 2008, to win the tournament in their very first season.
