How to attach event to this hyperlink button

How can I add onClientClick event to this

<a href="javascript:__doPostBack('ctl00$m$g_8dbaa58f_d132_4042_b180_3c555d885dde$ctl00$GridView1','Delete$0')">Delete</a>

Since it's a commandfield in Gridview so I couldn't get it directly, check this question for more information.

Subscribe to the gridview's RowDataBound event and search for the anchor tag in the item's Controls collection.

    protected void OnRowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
    {
        // this will apply the action in the lambda expression to all controls or sub-controls of the row matching type LinkButton  
        // (you may have a different control type and you may want to alter your lambda expression to check that the control matched is really the control you want to manipulate)
        SearchControls<LinkButton>(e.Row, button => button.OnClientClick = "alert('here');");
    }

    // recursive Control search function
    private void SearchControls<T>(Control start, Action<T> itemMatch)
    {
        foreach (var c in start.Controls.OfType<T>())
            itemMatch(c);

        foreach (var c in start.Controls.OfType<Control>())
            SearchControls<T>(c, itemMatch);
    }
