He expressed his gratitude saying, “I am very grateful and very happy to be a part of this franchise.” What followed next was sheer gold as he talked about what the fans can expect Harshal to do in the upcoming season.
Purple Patel concluded by citing, “You can expect absolute commitment, energy. That’s what I can bring to the field. Hopefully, that is going to be enough for us to win the trophy this year.”
