Explained why will Gujarat Titans be wearing lavender colour jersey vs SRH and match date in IPL 2023
On 15 May at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, the Hardik Pandya-led side will hit the pitch wearing lavender jerseys against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
The critical problem of cancer, which continues to be a major source of illness and mortality in India and around the world, is being brought to light by this campaign.
The colour lavender, which represents all cancer types, serves as a potent reminder of the numerous lives that have been profoundly affected by this terrible illness.
The Gujarat Titans’ decision to wear lavender jerseys is a part of their campaign to highlight the critical importance of lifestyle changes in the fight against cancer while also bringing attention to the necessity of early identification and prevention.
Gujarat Titans COO Col. Arvinder Singh said:
Cancer causes millions of deaths worldwide and with a devastating impact on patients and their families.”
He further said that they are pleased to contribute to the fight against cancer awareness, which emphasises the relevance of leading a healthy lifestyle in addition to educating people about the value of early detection.
He further added:
Our team is committed to driving positive change and contributing to the global fight against cancer.”
Gujarat Titans’ captain Hardik Pandya believes that millions of people battle cancer in India and around the world, and as a team, they feel responsible for spreading awareness of this deadly condition.
He said:
Wearing lavender jerseys is our way of showing solidarity with cancer patients, survivors, and their families. We hope our actions will inspire others to take preventive measures and support those who are fighting this battle.”
The team’s “Race with the Titans” fitness initiative, which aims to promote a fitter lifestyle, was introduced earlier this year.
The most recent effort expands on that by providing cricket enthusiasts and Gujarat Titans supporters with the opportunity to unite and demonstrate their support for this crucial cause during their next encounter against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
