After the 8-wickets loss, the 28-years old Gujarat captain said that he backs his decision to bat first as his team wanted to come out of their comfort zone.
Pandya further added that Gujarat have chased well in the tournament but they had to know how to set targets and this is all about learning to come out of their comfort zone.
With eight wins from 10 games, the Titans are leading the IPL points table and are set to reach the play-offs.
